Hook Sizes On Weighted Swim Bait Hooks And Underspins?

Featured Replies

Can someone please shed some light on why hooks of the same advertised size between these baits are so different? I can understand that different company's hooks may vary, but I've seen a big difference in baits from the same manufacturer. For example: I have some Owner Flashy Swimmers with a 5/0 hook and just got some Owner Weighted Twistlock Lite Hooks, also in 5/0. The Flashy Swimmer hook is much larger, why is this?

 

Thanks....Joe

Good question Joe. The owner lite twistlock hooks do run on the small size compared to other owners. They were developed with Gary Yamamoto for use with senko style baits. The hook size specs were Gary's call not owners. All the other owner hook sizes follow owners specs.
