What's everyone's favorite flipping hook for creature baits when flipping and pitching into medium and heavy cover?

Trokar TK 130

VMC

Owner 4X Jungle Flippin hook in 5/0 or the Gamakatsu Heavy Cover in the same size. Some baits line up better with a super line EWG in 4/0.

Same here.

I like the standard VMC flippin' hook for moderate cover and I'll pair it with a slimmer profile soft plastic.

Fluorocarbon-Eagle Claw Lazer Sharp Magworm EWG

Braid-Eagle Claw Lazer Sharp Flipping Hook 

What do you guys think of the Owner  Twistlock flipping hooks? I ordered a few to try but out season doesn't start for a while yet. 

Eagle Claw Straight Shank flipping hook

I used to use VMCs until every plastic keeper starting breaking and chipping.  Now I use Trokar, typically 4/0

I've pretty much gone to Owner Rigging Hooks and Wide Gap Plus for ALL weedless plastic applications, excluding finesse stuff.  I don't need anything heavier or fancier.

I also think the knife point of the Trokar hook looks really cool ?.  Whether it actually leads to better hooksets, who knows...

I've been told this hook is the best there is for that...

I don’t really care how it looks, but for me it absolutely does.

This is my favorite I use.

Gamakatsu

 

The bait keeper doesn’t destroy the bait. The shank above the bait keeper is perfect for snelling. Hook is strong enough to swing fish in the boat.

Just bought some of the 6th Sense flipping hooks and plan to try them punching. Won’t use them for probably about a month but they look like they’ll be good.

I normally flip with flourocarbon, so I prefer the Owner Wide Gap Plus or the VMC Ike Heavy Wide Gap Hook.

Trokar Pro V Flippin Hook. I think it used to called the Big Nasty and it is!
