When I started fishing it I would do so on a wacky hook. Bought the VMC 1/0 n 2/0. They seem very big, not much experience with them at all. Weedless hook doesnt really seem much better to me. So with a Trick worm sz bait what brand n sz hook are you using? Thanks

My favorite is the VMC #2, never used the 2/0

I'm using a #1 and 1/0 myself. The VMC weedless Neko hooks literally do nothing over the regular one's. 

I use a Mustad Titan X wacky/neko hook 1/0 and have had zero issues.

I agree on the weedless part, even after making them shorter so their stiffer they dont do much.

I used the VMC Neko #1 but it just seemed too big and heavy. Switched to a Owner Mosquito Light and it works great.

We used all those style hooks in the beginning w pretty good results and then it became the cool thing to use these long shank hooks for the rig. But if that's what the pros r throwing I figured I try em out.  Like I said above I'm not down w the bigger VMCs I bought, picking up a pack of sz 1 and 2 of the new Owner hook and gonna try it.

To clarify, I'm using mine on baitcasting gear with 12-14# fluoro. If I went much smaller than a #1, I'd fear bending the hook out on my setup. 

I use the VMC 2/0 for neko rigging a Rage craw.Works really great.
