I was in the process of replacing the hooks on my plugs and was wondering what type of hooks that you use, on plugs such as wiggle warts or tadpollys.. What brand , size and style? Thanks

1/0 open eye siwash gammies or owners, both excellant hooks, don't let anyone talk you into the second raters. (vmc,vision,mustad,etc)

I didn't know that Owner had siwash hooks, where can they be purchased?

Following Skydriftin's post...don't forget to use an extra heavy duty split ring, too, and make sure the hook rides up, not down or sideways.

Fish on...

I like to add a good barrel swivel as well to help when the fish start to roll.

5/0 siwash open eye Gammi's barbless on a LARGE split ring with the hook pointed UP.

Y'all say w/the hook "UP". Am I buildin mah spoons wrong? I always put the hooks on (spoons) so the point is pointing down. Doesn't seem to increase snags but does seem to increase hook-ups. Anyone else build their own spoons? Which way do you point the hook point, up or down?

Thanx an tight lines

Sincerely,
Roger

Hook point up makes less snag problems with plugs...

Hook points should be pointing towards the cocave part of the spoon...according to the BH, I always had the hooks on the plugs pointing down...

hooks up on plugs keeps the hook out of the rocks,keeps them sharp
