A quick question and consensus among users.

I was thinking of picking up 100 of the treble hook covers on eBay for $7. I want to know from those who use them, are they worth it? Do they help keep your hooks from intertwining? And is there a difference from experience from the $7 for 100 & the 12 for $6?

They work, but I found that I was spending as much time putting them on & off as I was untangling lures, so I quit using them.

I only use them on my swimbaits.  I use the Owner covers and the BPS covers, they both work great.  They take up too much room to use for crankbaits, IMO.

They work great. Especially if u use rod socks and don't untie every day

Thank you for the insight so far. I do like to change lures a lot so made me think about that aspect.

And I would of thought they wouldn't take up that much room ... might still look into it considering the cheap price of them.

Hi- Ive used them all, from the rubber ones(which are too bulky) and the cheap ones(which alot of times wont stay on). The only ones i will use now are the ones made by OWNER. They are 2.99 a pack at TW.  Ya,they are more more money,but the ole saying(you get what you pay for) applys here. OWNER covers have a distinct snap putting the hook in,a drain hole allowing air movement,and are way easier to remove. Also if you ever replace the hooks as i have with (kvd 1x2x hooks), the owners fit better. They also keep ya from gettin stuck while tying up,and keeping hooks sharp. As far as taking up more space,i dont see how? unless your using ones that are too big for the lure? I will post up pics of my squarebill box and others,so you can see for yourself,later tonight when i get home..HAPPY NEW YEAR..........

I also use the Owners. I use them to keep from scratching my rods up, and because my dog likes to stomp on fishing lures, which is a problem if the hooks aren't covered.
