I'm looking for a  thin diameter,   off shank hook that  is strong  enough to use in heavy cover .  I'm not texposing , I'm burying the hook in the worm and want a hook that comes out fast and not bend .

 

Would consider straight shank also but prefer the offset .

I was also going to recommend these hooks

They are straight shank, but these Gamakatsu hooks are very strong for diameter.

Last year I had very good luck with the new Berkley Fusion hooks.  I'm not tex-posing these hooks, but I am skin hooking them, burying the hook point just a little bit.  I don't suppose that I'm throwing into any denser cover than you are, but I had very little problems with skin hooking.   I never felt like I had to leave the point all the way in the bait with the Fusion hook.

Been using Hayabusa for the 2nd year now. Not a single issue. As soon as they make the bigger weighted screw-lock swimbait hooks, I will be all in.
