Owner 2015 Catalog, Page 2

At Owner American Corporation, we have devoted nearly two decades of effort in developing a line of high quality, high performance

fish hooks that, today, are second to none in popularity among both fresh and saltwater anglers. With the addition of Cultiva Lures

to our product line, our company experienced the kind of phenomenal growth that forced us to expand into a larger facility in

Costa Mesa, California — one that has allowed us to better serve the needs of a rapidly expanding customer base.

Satisfied, if not ecstatic customers have helped us come a long way in a relatively short period of time. Their exciting catch

results (visit our website to view the “proof” in pictures), plus the huge successes of our tournament fishing pros, have kept our company inspired and motivated. That, coupled with the feedback from our growing number of avid fans, has helped us continue in the design and development of an ever-expanding line of hooks, lures —and now an exciting new line of soft baits — that we feel are

the best that they can be. We encourage you to look for Owner hooks, Cultiva ® lures, and our new SoftBaits at your favorite tackle

retailer — and if they don’t yet carry our products, ask them if they would please do so. We also invite you to visit our website at

www.ownerhooks.com , where you’ll find updates about Owner, Cultiva ® and SoftBaits, including a complete online catalog.

An Ideal Match For Owner Hooks!

OWNER’S

EXCLUSIVE

®

TRIPLE-EDGED CUTTING POINT

CUTTING POINT ® hooks, developed by the Owner Hook Company of Japan, are a revolutionary

breakthrough in high technology hook design. Unique to each Owner CUTTING POINT ® hook is

the triple-edged cutting blade led by a needle-sharp point that never needs sharpening. The point

grabs quickly, and as it begins to penetrate, the three cutting edges slice their way through the

toughest scales, cartilage and even jawbones for a positive, effortless hook set.

Owner’s unique triple-edged CUTTING POINTS ® are engineered for better penetration. Conven- tional hooks are typically stamped to a pyramid point or ground to a pencil-type point, and by their design, encounter more friction and resistance the deeper they penetrate. With the CUTTING POINT’s ® triple-edged blade, the amount of resistance actually decreases as the hook penetrates. Prove it to yourself by pulling the CUTTING POINT ® through a matchbook cover. The CUTTING POINT ® grabs and slices quick and clean right through the material!

Caution : Owner CUTTING POINT ® hooks are super sharp out of the package and do not need to be sharpened. Attempts to sharpen after purchase removes the finish and may weaken the tempering process, leading to rapid corrosion and soft points.

BLACK CHROME FINISH — Saltwater live bait fishermen prefer dark finish hooks because they are less visible than “bright” hooks and make for a more natural bait presentation. Many of Owner’s CUTTING POINT ® hooks feature a dark, durable Black Chrome finish that not only encourages more strikes from wary gamefish, but is highly resistant to saltwater corrosion, thus extending the life of the hook.

FISHING SCHOOLS

Host Sergio Fainzstein Is School’s Leading Educator

Owner Hooks has teamed up with Angler Chronicles to continue the legacy of the very popular “On-The-Water”

Fishing Schools. This successful program began in 1989 and has graduated over 40,000 student anglers. Combining on-deck seminars with hands-on instruction from highly experienced instructors, the Owner Hooks Fishing

Schools are committed to sharing the needed skills sets with recreational fishermen, from beginners to advanced,

so they may can become part of the 10 percent of anglers who catch 90 percent of the fish. The Owner Hooks Fishing

Schools are conducted aboard “Limited-Load” charters departing from most of the landings in Southern California. The school's team of instructors is led by Sergio Fainsztein, host of the Angler Chronicles TV Show and the Angler

Chronicles Radio Show. Sergio, co-director Ron Hobbs, and the entire Angler Chronicles crew are

always eager to share their knowledge and passion for fishing.
