TxHawgs Posted March 14, 2017 Posted March 14, 2017 Was checking them out on TW, thought about perhaps trying their dropshot hook? Quote
ErikmonBillsfon Posted March 14, 2017 Posted March 14, 2017 Well has anyone tried them? I have a blizzard outside Quote
Fishingmickey Posted March 14, 2017 Posted March 14, 2017 Erikmon, Yes, I have tried them! I like them so far. I posted earlier after a fishing weekend. I used them in a tournament this past weekend. My opinion is still the same. I have used them with good success. I used the 4/0 standard wire on a 7" power worm and the 5/0 heavy wire on a 10" power worm. Regardless of how many have said gimmicky they have worked very well for me. Fishingmickey 1 Quote
blckshirt98 Posted March 14, 2017 Posted March 14, 2017 I got some size 1 and size 2 dropshot Trapper hooks and while I haven't caught a fish on them yet I did snag something in the water with one over the weekend. While the Owner hooks I usually use will tend to bend and straighten out when pulling them free from a snag (using 10lb FC leader), the Trapper hook snapped clean at the first bend. So it looks like straightening the hook out won't be an issue, it'll just be total hook failure if it ever gets to that level of strain on the hook. Quote
