The hooks that come on today's Yo-Zuri lures are top-notch, in fact the rear hook is the one that came with it, I just added some feathers!

Nice! 1

It’s always bugged me when hardbody bait companies put so much into their baits only to outfit them with substandard hooks. I particular Canadian company comes to mind. 😉
