GoneFishingLTN Posted February 21, 2018 Posted February 21, 2018 Can someone help me and reccomend a good tube and flipping hook to go with it. I’ve seen the strike king/powerbait ones but see nothing about flipping hooks for these baits Quote
RyneB Posted February 21, 2018 Posted February 21, 2018 the Trokar tube hook is the only hook I use for tubes. I've even flipped creatures and beavers with it as well. Awesome hook. 1 Quote
papajoe222 Posted February 21, 2018 Posted February 21, 2018 If you don't need a stout hook, the JP tube hook with the clip on it is an awesome choice. It doesn't work, however, with an internal weight. When doing that, I like a hook with a good amount of wire between the eye and the initial bend for the weight to nest in. Any quality, stout worm hook will work with the bigger 4in.+ tubes. For any thing shorter, you'll want something like the Trokar RyneB mentioned. For tubes, I like TriggerX and Havoc Smash tubes for a long,skinny profile, but my favorite for flipping is a craw/creature tube. Absolutely awesome as a punch bait and you can load up the hollow body with scent, or add an internal rattle. Quote
Global Moderator Bluebasser86 Posted February 21, 2018 Global Moderator Posted February 21, 2018 I prefer the Strike King ones because they have the solid head to help hold the hook. I just use an EWG hook. 1 Quote
river-rat Posted February 21, 2018 Posted February 21, 2018 I've used the Strike King Denny Brauer Flippin' tube with a 5/0 Mustad Ultra Point Big Mouth Tube Hook for years with good success. Can't go wrong with that set up. Quote
Scarborough817 Posted February 21, 2018 Posted February 21, 2018 personally i just use an ewg mustad grip pins are my favourite. as for the tubes i use phenix tubes, thinking about grabbing some yum tubes though Quote
