JFlynn97 Posted February 20, 2018 Posted February 20, 2018 I'm going to be picking up some Gamakatsu finesse wide gap hooks to use primarily for wacky rigging senkos. I've heard recommendations for everywhere from size 2 to 4/0. If you had to pick only one size, which would y'all go? I think I'm going to try for 1/0, but I'd love people's opinions! Quote

Patrickcatalano Posted February 20, 2018 Posted February 20, 2018 I’ve found 3/0 finesse wide gap to be effective Quote

Super User Deleted account Posted February 21, 2018 Super User Posted February 21, 2018 1/0 with a ring, 2/0 without. Quote
Super User Crestliner2008 Posted February 22, 2018 Super User Posted February 22, 2018 I've been using Gamakatsu's Inline Circle hook size 1/0. I prefer the one with the turned up eye, which I snell onto the fluorocarbon leader. I've caught a lot of bass on that hook. Quote
Super User WRB Posted February 22, 2018 Super User Posted February 22, 2018 Owner 5172 size 1/0 for 5" and 2/0 for 6" & 7" w/o-rings. Tom Quote
bassguytom Posted February 22, 2018 Posted February 22, 2018 Gammy 1/0 octopus hook is what we use. Quote
Dens228 Posted February 22, 2018 Posted February 22, 2018 I use the Gamakatsu Offset EWG 2/0 hook for both wacky and t-rigs.......A lot of times I'm using wacky rigged and get to areas that have a lot of weeds and just take the worm of and rehook it as a weightless t-rig, or vice-versa. Quote
LxVE Bassin Posted February 26, 2018 Posted February 26, 2018 3/0 Gamakatsu Finesse Wide Gap. NO WEEDGUARD!!! Quote
Super User Gundog Posted February 26, 2018 Super User Posted February 26, 2018 I like the Gammy 1/0 finesse w.g. weedless hooks. Quote

Dens, i have done this as well just out of convenience or had to rig up quickly and found it works well. i also like to texas rig until the end gets tore up, then wacky it to get more use out of my worms.

All Day Fishing Posted February 26, 2018 Posted February 26, 2018 1/0 OR 2/0, I use two O-rings that overlap each other, and where they cross (makes an X) place the hook underneath there and you don't even have to put the hook through the worm! Works great for me Quote
Super User NHBull Posted February 26, 2018 Super User Posted February 26, 2018 Owner wacky and also use it for dropshots Quote
BassResource.com Administrator Glenn Posted February 26, 2018 BassResource.com Administrator Posted February 26, 2018 I keep it simple: 2/0 EWG. Quote
Super User Bankbeater Posted February 26, 2018 Super User Posted February 26, 2018 Usually I use a 2/0 EWG hook. If I am fishing with a very skinny worm I will downsize to a 1/0 EWG. Quote
mattkenzer Posted February 26, 2018 Posted February 26, 2018 Another vote for Gamakatsu Finesse Wide Gap in 2/0 .... 1 Quote
