Weedless Hudds have a recessed top hook, the standard models don't.

Of course, that's what makes them weedless, but they all come with a hook.

The original standard 0 & 5 only have a hook hangers no top hook, you add the hook.

Looking at the Huddleston site they do have a top hook model 5 in 6", 68, 8" & 10".

I haven't bought a Hudd 6", 68 or 8" ROF 5 in over a decade, still have a dozens of them since the trout stocking ceased where fish.

They come with hooks these days.

JustinJ There a lot of proven baits that have been suggested so far in this thread . That said it might be helpful to find what rod/reel and line combo you have available to throw these baits with . It's not uncommon to see swimbait fisherman throwing baits around an ounce up to 10 ounces or more. Most of the swimbait sticks tend to have a sweet spot in terms of weight range where they perform well. For example I have 3 Dobyns 795's in my line-up along with a few other rods. Even though this rod is rated from 1 to 5 ounces , I think the sweet spot are baits in the 2 to 3-1/2 oz range as an example and anything over 4 ounces is pushing it . Knowing what you are working with will help you select baits that will match up well with your equipment optimizing your ability to cast, control and fish these baits properly. 

Primus brings up a good point, I have an Okuma Guide Select H rated 1-6 oz and I would not throw anything over 4 oz on it.
