Kevfish Posted March 14, 2019 Posted March 14, 2019 What's a good hook for punching grass and other thick vegetation Quote
Jcj90 Posted March 14, 2019 Posted March 14, 2019 I’ve always just used a Gamakatsu EWG superline hook. Most guys use straight shank flipping hooks, I don’t. Works for me, may not work for you 1 Quote

anderb54 Posted March 15, 2019 Posted March 15, 2019 I really like the Owner Jungle flipping hooks for that application 1 Quote
The Maestro Posted March 15, 2019 Posted March 15, 2019 Strike King Hack Attack - This hook's just a monster. I run them on 80lb braid VMC Heavy Duty Ike - I would't hesitate to use these in any flipping situation including punching. Don't be put off by the lower price. They're as good as any hook out there.

Y'all costing me money! Ha! The last time I restocked my flipping hooks, both BPS and Academy were out of the 4/0 and 5/0 Trokar. I picked up a pack of the of the Owner 4X Jungle Flipping Hooks and a pack of the Owner Twist Lock Flippin' Hooks. I'm really liking the Owner Twist Lock Flippin' Hook as I can get a few more uses out of a plastic, especially the thin ones like an Ugly Otter or BB Cricket. 1 Quote
ResoKP Posted March 15, 2019 Posted March 15, 2019 I use both Trokar Flippin' Hook and Gamakatsu Heavy Cover Flippin' Hook. Both solid hooks but I tend to get better hook up ratio with the Gamakatsu. I think it's because the Trokar hook point is bent inwards a little more. But if the plastic is torn up, the Gamakatsu catches more grass because the hook point sticks out more. Quote
