Are these the right hooks?

Featured Replies

I just got my new Basstrix Swimbaits, I got the 6" swimbait and I'm curious if this is the right hook I need?

These are listed on eBay, are these what I need or do I need bigger/heavier?

those should word.....the hook zoom makes for the horny toad is also very good.

personally I use an owner 5/0 riggin hook.

This the hook you talking about? I use these for pitching, t-rig and c-rig fishing with plastics. If you use these on swimbaits, I assume you use spilt shot weights to get the weight you like?

Yep, thems the hooks I use.

sometimes I use a splitshot snugged right to the nose,

other times I improvise a weighted hook by wrapping those storm suspend strips around the hook.  I like this better than the commercially sold keel weighted hooks.

P.S.  I have not had the luck with these that I hoped for.  So far my personal experience does not justify the expense or the hoopla....If you do better please share the details.

thanks and good luck
