Frog Hook Question

[NHfroggin]

Does anyone use frog hooks such as these:

Do these types of hooks keep the frogs from rolling? does it improve your hook ups? i will be mostly using these hooks on Rage Tail Toads.

Any input would be appreciated

I use a regular Gamakatsu SuperLine hook for Rage Tails. Those are more for hollow body frogs really. I started a similar thread last week with only one members response. Hope you have better luck!

As the illustration shows, 5/0 EWG superline is a standard for thr Rage Toad. I like Gamakatsu for this style. Hooks that have screw locks and 20 to 30 degree bends that works are 6/0 Owner twistlock, Youvella 6/0 swimbait hook, Sizmic 6/0, HorneyToad 6/0.

Hope this helps

Dink and Big thanks for the replies, i currently use a 5/0 gamakatsu super line hook, just wondering about different hooks for better hook ups.

thanks

I stick to the single superline hook. My thoughts are, if a fish hits a frog or toad in more or less open water, you will most likely get the hook in her. If she hits in slop and also gets a mouth full of slop with the bait, down go your odds. I have had more than my share of misses due to this in the slop using Snagproof, Spro type frogs and they all have 2 hooks. But by all means go ahead and try them. I'm not a fan of the screw-in style of hook but alot of others are. I think they tear up the baits nose too quickly. JMHO.

i have used those gambler double trouble hooks. you have to bend the tips inward in order to get them to work correctly. too much work for me to fine tune the hook to get it to swim properly. i stick to gama 5/0 ewg.
