Comments: Decided to test this hook yesterday in the Ca Delta. Wanted to have a weedless wacky setup for 5" senkos, with a swivel to help reduce spinning reel line twist. I've caught enough fish in my kayak, on wacky worms to have a pretty good feel for the bump or tick through the rod to know when a fish is there. I fished docks for a number of hours and thought I felt that tick a number of times but wasnt able to reel down and hook the fish. Further, I had 3 come off. After a few hours (and on my way back to the ramp) I switched over to my usual setup (a O ring and a 1/0 spin bait hook and landed 4 fish. Maybe Neko style would be different but I don't really use that rig to much for a weightless wacky it didn't work for me. Also, the Senkos generally are not real durable but with an O ring you can catch multiple fish; however, the fish I did land with the G-finesse really tore the bait up. Couldn't reuse it.

Comments: Love the hooks, very sharp, but the wire keeper will break off.

Comments: Purchased all sizes of this new product for weedless application and have caught numerous bass primarily using the Daiwa/Yamamoto Fat Neko worms. Takes a few trial and errors to rig, the video really helps a lot. I have found that using the softer type baits really take a beating due to the rigging process and rarely will a bait survive a strike for a second use,not a complaint just happens. I have had a couple of the bait keepers gone after using for a few hours I guess the solder attachment can get over stressed..all said great addition to to this great fishing technique
