Great hookThis new idea presents the bait in a new way. Very sheep hook and very strong.
Weedguard needs a better designUsed weedless version on a shallow, hydrilla and lily pad infested lake. Despite an early Spring warming trend, moving baits were not producing any bites. So decided to try the 1/28 weedless wacky hook with a 6” stick worm, caught three bass on the first 10 casts. Hook holds the soft plastic very well as long as the plastic has a large diameter. Screw look is too big for trick worm style plastic. Hookup was great, all fish hooked in roof of the mouth. My only criticism is the weed guard was bent beyond repair after just three 2 lb bass.I was able to bend it back into place after first fish but after 3rd fish it was too bent to straighten back into shape. Seems like a Fluorocarbon weed guard would be a better idea. The non weedless version is easier to use since you don’t have to twist the soft plastic in the small gap between the hook point and the hook shank.
