uglyfish Posted August 24, 2010 Report Share Posted August 24, 2010 1/0 circle hooks, or 1/0 octopus hooks. the trokar dropshot hook is a good choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Urban Fisherman Posted August 24, 2010 Report Share Posted August 24, 2010 Laser sharp makes an awesome wacky rig hook... I use it for drop shooting as well... I'll find a link when I'm on the computer rather than my phone.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jedimaster Posted August 24, 2010 Report Share Posted August 24, 2010 Mustad weedless widegap whacky hooks. I have used em all,from trokar, to gamagatsu to circle hooks and octopus. The mustad ones perform the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cudz Posted August 24, 2010 Report Share Posted August 24, 2010 octopus 2/0 but no smaller than 1/0 circle 2/0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
singingdog Posted August 24, 2010 Report Share Posted August 24, 2010 The gammie wide-gap finesse hooks are great. My other favourite is the weighted wacky hook from Northland: great for getting them a little deeper and into heavier cover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gregoire Posted August 24, 2010 Report Share Posted August 24, 2010 I was watching a bass show and they recommended an offset hook to increase hook ups. Has anyone tried this? Does it make a difference? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chong Posted August 24, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 24, 2010 Are the hooks I'm using ok or should I switch to circle hooks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCTFisher9120 Posted August 24, 2010 Report Share Posted August 24, 2010 This summer I used a 1/0 Lazer Tro Kar drop shot/circle hook. Worked well and got the fish hooked right in the top of the mouth every time just like this average senko bass. Caught lot's on these hooks and they are still sticky sharp. Great hooks IMO, MTBF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
