KevO Posted November 17, 2014 Posted November 17, 2014 Ok so the pointer 100sp uses #5 treble hooks stock. I'm having trouble finding this size. Seems like mustad and gamakatsu don't make a #5 treble or at least TW doesn't stock them. Where can I find a #5 round bend treble? What other hooks do you recommend. I have a few baits I got from a friend who quit fishing, he replaced the hooks and they sink like rocks now. I want the baits to suspend like they do straight out of the box. Quote

KevO Posted November 17, 2014 Author Posted November 17, 2014 Thanks Dwight I will check them out. Quote
Super User FishTank Posted November 17, 2014 Super User Posted November 17, 2014 Owner stinger treble hook ST-36. TW has them. That is what I use. Those are the ticket. I replaced some over the summer and I too was not sure which to use. i bought a couple of different ones but these seem to be the sharpest and also very durable. They also seemed close in nature to the originals (meaning it did not alter the baits performance). Quote

I can change the way it sits in the water with an extra split ring or suspend dot but I need it to suspend right first. Quote
Siebert Outdoors Posted November 18, 2014 Posted November 18, 2014 I also use the ST36 like Dwight. I just finished changing a bunch out the other day. 1 Quote
