Title: Re: Bait size

ive never been a fan of the weedless type spring/wire/rubber/plastic hooks. ive always been afraid that in order for you to hook a fish solid you cant have anything in the way of the hook and in order for it to be weedless/snagless youd have to sacrifice hooking some fish. i dont really lose many lures because i run 20lb test braided line(i tried suffix 832 and its amazing!!). i can usually straighten out he hooks or they will pull through the rotten timber.

the only weedless type modifications i do are when using rubber worms and dipping the hook point back into the rubber, but with the extra wide gap worm hooks its ready to catch fish in an instant.
