Is it a good idea to snell a hook when worm fishing for Bass  ?

Depends on who you ask. Depends on what type of hook and what technique.

I don't, but I understand the thinking behind it. 

I don't ?

I usually don't

Always when punching and in heavy vegetation.

If the eye is bent, so you can snell the hook and keep it straight, then that's what I do.  Otherwise, I don't mess with it.  

No. I did it for a couple of seasons then went back to a palomar. No difference. If anything a palomar is more reliable and better for hookups. I don't buy into the whole hook 'kicking up' theory. Sure it's a neat trick in your hands but really doubt it helps in practice.

Thanks Everyone for your replys
