Red Eye Shad Hooks

[bassguytom]

Do any of you guys ever change out the hooks on Strike King's red eye shad lipless crankbaits? If so what do you change to? I have been losing a lot of fish and was wondering this. Thanks for the help.

I honestly like them. I tend to hang then up on submerged wood alot and alot of times I can pull it out and replace the hook rather than breaking off the whole bait...

I also don't have an issue with losing fish with them. I'm bank fishing if that matters

I like the VMC's that come on them. Especially the 3/4 ounce baits. Never had a problem losing fish on them.

I use either one of these 2 hooks on Redeye Shad.  I go with a size 2 for both hooks.
