radiozephyr Posted September 7, 2023 Posted September 7, 2023 Wondering what sizes ya'll use for weedless drop shotting these baits: 4.5" finesse worms (e.g. 4.5" roboworm or zoom finesse worm) 6" roboworm 6.5" zoom trick worm 7" roboworm Again, I'm asking about roboworm ReBarb hooks specifically. Not any other brand/ line of hooks. Also: Does your answer change if you plan on t-rigging those baits instead dropshotting? 1 Quote

Super User Mobasser Posted September 7, 2023 Super User Posted September 7, 2023 I've used size 1/0 with the 4.5 Roboworm, and 2/0 for the 6" size. I use the same size for t rig or drop shot. Quote

bottom_dollar Posted September 8, 2023 Posted September 8, 2023 1/0 for the drop shot, 4/0 medium wire for Texas and Carolina rigging. 1 Quote

padon Posted September 9, 2023 Posted September 9, 2023 i use the 1/0 for 4 inch worms and the 2/0 for 6 inch. i also like the light wire for drop shot. Quote

bottom_dollar Posted September 10, 2023 Posted September 10, 2023 Both, that way I can just change worms to try and dial it in. Brush piles and stuff like that= Texas rig, open water or they’re not eating it that good I will thread the worm on there Quote

Interesting that everyone else in this thread has said 2/0 for the 6". But 1/0 is light wire, plus I feel like the smaller hook gives a more finesse action. Quote
