Hook tip rusted off, the lure is trash now. You can try sharpening it but that hook is compromised and i wouldn’t bother with it. Think how gutted you would feel if you hook a PB with that thing only for the hook to break or straighten out a few feet from the boat. I personally won’t fish with hooks i dont trust.

I know these arent cheap but I really wouldnt trust that hook after sharpening. It could have just broke from hitting a rock, but it also could have broke from usage. I put my chatterbaits through some shit and never had a point break like that!

Rub it gently in a clockwise fashion with a brand new fuckin’ lure!
