Wacky Hook w/ 4" Worm

Featured Replies

I want to wacky rig a 4" Gary Yamamoto Worm. Now what hook size do you preferred? A size #1 or 1/0 hook? Please comment below and help me out here folks.

1/0 circle hook

I use the same 2/0 ewg hook i use to weightless Texas rig it. I've caught many bass this way when the worm was too torn to continue Texas rigging. 

I used to carry #1 for 4” and 1/0 for 5”, but when I started consolidating terminal tackle, I tried using the 1/0 for 4”. Didn’t notice any difference, so the #1 hooks got dropped. 
 

Both were Gammy TGW drop shot style hooks. Being light wire hooks, there is very little difference between the weight of the #1 and 1/0.

Either size will work. I primarily use 4" (+) worms for wacky,

and I've used from #4 up to #2/0. The 1 and 1/0 are probably

the sweet spot....

I like a #2 VMC weedless neko hook. Works great. now I have one hook for 2 purposes.
