VMC Round Bend Treble 1X Black Nickel #4 – 9650BN#4C

Overview

Upgrade your lure rig with the VMC 9650BN#4C Round Bend Treble in Black Nickel. This compact, durable hook is built to pair with mid-size lures for freshwater and light saltwater setups. The round bend promotes smooth hook exposure and predictable action during retrieves, while the 1X wire balances strength with quick responsiveness. The black nickel finish reduces glare in sunny conditions and helps the hook blend with dark lure bodies, so you can focus on technique rather than equipment.

Size #4 is a versatile choice for spoons, crankbaits, and minnow-style plugs. The round bend supports fluid lure motion and can contribute to cleaner, more reliable hook launches when casting. With a package length of 1.25 inches, the VMC treble fits easily into a tight tackle kit and stays ready for on-water swaps. The black nickel finish offers corrosion resistance and low glare in bright water.
