DINK WHISPERER Posted June 22, 2009 Posted June 22, 2009 I am in need of some replacement hooks for my hollow bodied frogs. I have read bad reviews on just about all the hooks i found available. The Gamakatsu, Gambler and Tru Tungsten are all i found. Buyers stated that they do not fit the Spro frogs. I will be using them on Spro Bronze Eye frogs and Spro popper frogs. I might even try them on Rage Tail toads. Any help is appreciated. Quote
Super User Big Bait Fishing Posted June 22, 2009 Super User Posted June 22, 2009 OWNER makes a double frog hook that fits Spros . gamakatsu also makes one , i myself would go with the Owner hook , best hooks made http://www.***.com/descpage-ODFH.html btw , i have tried double frog hooks on rage tail toads , they don't work for me ! i find that ewg hooks work very good , i have came up with a rigging combo that for me is perfect - i use Owner TwistLock Open Gap Centering Pin Hook in 5/0 , take the Centering-Pin Spring off and replace it with the large ones they (Owner) sell seperately and you got a lethal hook combo !!!!!

DINK WHISPERER Posted June 22, 2009 Author Posted June 22, 2009 THANKS MAN! The reviews on the Gamakatsu frog hook stated that it didn't fit the Spro Bronze eye frogs? Any idea where i can get the Owner in 3/0 for the Spro popping frog(comes with 3/0)? Or will the 4/0 fit it also? Quote
Super User Big Bait Fishing Posted June 22, 2009 Super User Posted June 22, 2009 i don't know about the popper but the 4/0 fits the smaller frog and the 6/0 will work in the 65mm. frog perfectly . the popper is alot skinnier than the ''frogs'' so you might have to just try it with the 4/0 , i just don't know if the hook will fit snuggly to the body of the popper , i hate when the hooks don't cause you'll be catching grass all day and hinder the action of the bait . hope this helps Quote
DINK WHISPERER Posted June 22, 2009 Author Posted June 22, 2009 I tried to get a hold of Spro but never did get an actual person! ANYONE ELSE HAVE SOME INPUT??? Quote
Bernie Mac Posted June 22, 2009 Posted June 22, 2009 You can also try frog hooks from 152nd Street baits (www.152ndstreetbaits.com) Quote
DINK WHISPERER Posted June 23, 2009 Author Posted June 23, 2009 Those would be ok for the Rage Tails but i need the doubles for the Spro Frogs! Quote
