Going to turn it into a lure retriever handle when I get a chance. 

I throw all gamakatsu hooks so that is what I go with. I feel that there are more bad hooks than there are "best" hooks.

You are being hit with a lot of information but yes that  is correct in the red.  The reason a texas rig works is because of the fall and also when the bait hits the bottom subtle twitches cause the bait to move on the bottom, also hops and such. when using a bait with appendages , for example  missile bait d bomb, on the fall they flutter and also twitch when you shake them. This entices fish because if they do not hit it on the fall sometimes they follow the bait down to the bottom and nose it and wait for movement then hit it.  Also the worm doesnt always sit flat depending on the bottom.
