RobA Posted September 19 Share Posted September 19 I love throwing inline spinners. Mostly 1/4 and 3/8 ounce Rooster Tails but I do not like the treble hooks they come with. Any thoughts on a good replacement treble? Brand/style/size? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super User islandbass Posted September 19 Super User Share Posted September 19 Any of the major brands like owner, gamakatsu, vmc, mustad are excellent options. I’ve tried all of these brands and been satisfied with their performance. Use the same size as the one that is currently on those lures. They are likely to be a size 4, 6, or 8. One thing you might want to try is going with a single hook. As someone who also likes to use them, single hooks are just as effective, possibly better in the hook up department. The best thing I like about them is they make releasing the fish easier for you and the fish. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super User Bankc Posted September 20 Super User Share Posted September 20 Some people have a preferred brand. But not me. I go with anything other than Eagle Claw, because I've had too many of those rust out on me. Plus, they're never sharp out of the box. I've heard their Trokar line are better, but that brand has soured me too much to give them a try. Besides Owner, Gamakatsu, VMC, and Mustad, I also like Berkley Fusion19 and Bass Pro's and Academy's house brands. I haven't had a complaint among any of them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
looking45 Posted September 20 Share Posted September 20 My friends and I swapped out the treble hooks on Panther Martins for inline hooks. The single hooks increased out hook up ration and it’s a lot harder for fish to toss the small treble. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dopey Posted September 22 Share Posted September 22 I make my own and have always used Mustad's and Eagle Claws but I bought them in bulk and haven't had any problems with them. I've tried single hooks but didn't notice any change in hookups. Any that I've bought since I get red or black nickle. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
