Jig Master Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 I am looking for a good hook to use for some swimbaits. I have used 6/0 Gamy offset superline hooks and they work well, but a larger hook might be even better. Unweighted prefered. If weighted, no more than 1/4 oz.

You knew everyone would tell ya go Owner Beast...Its too bad no one makes a 8/0 hook with a 1/4oz weight. You could get the 3/8oz 8/0 Beast and take a razor blade to the weight -- just shave it down a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RK Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 You can also get an unweighted Beast and add DOA pinch weights... (google 'em.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
