Wacky worm hooks ?

[duber]

Well its only 4 sleeps away boys and girls .After a slow day of walleye fishing I am switching over to bass mode and double checking my gear.While going threw my terminal tackel I got to thinking about the hooks I use for wacky worming.I use just regular worm hooks but I'm thinking that a smaller thinner hook would be better. Just thought I would ask you all what you use.

 

Thanks to all replies

VMC 1/0 circle hooks. 99.9% of the time the bass are hooked in the corner of the mouth

ditto on the 1/0 circle hooks. Tried them for the first time last year and they're great, especially for the wacky rigging - notice much less deep hooking happening (or I was getting better at reading the line twitches - probably both).

I use a 3/0 EWG hook. It's easier to remove than smaller hooks.

Check first!! I read the question. These are all very small and thin. The Decoy's are very thin and razor sharp. Zappu hook I buy at Trembleys in Orillia and are very small and sharp. I beleive he asked what you use. I can post pics and actuall sizes if it makes ya happy!!!!

I like the 3/0 as well and alot of the time I use the tube hooks with weight to get them down through the cabbage faster.
