Two key benefits: 1) EASIER UNHOOKING, extra length gives you grip for unhooking deep-hooked fish (avoid losing the hook in a fish or injuring the fish during release). 2) LESS BITE-OFF, the long shank protects against sharp-toothed fish biting through your line at the hook.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\"2X\" strength:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e2X = double standard wire strength.
