Anybody else tried these? The XL refers to the extra long shank section before the bend.

I used the 3/0 size last year for 5" weightless Senkos and was very pleased. The longer shank section means the Senko stays on better and lasts longer. They pretty much replaced my Gammy EWG hooks.

Yes they are sharp good hooks for the money.

I'll have to give them a go. Thanks for the tip, Brian.

I fell in love with VMC hooks last season. All I will buy from now on, great hook with an even better price tag

They're nice for fishing any kind of worm, especially bigger worms.

I liked the hooks your specifically asking about for wobble head jig work. Paired with a Mustad fastach head. My number one smallmouth producing rigging method of 2014.

Additionally, there are 13 hooks to a pack and I believe I paid $3.99.

I'm not very price-conscious when it comes to hooks (although there is no way I can pay Trokar prices) so the extra value is a bonus.

However, they are a bit hard to find in my neck of the woods.
