catchbig0bass Posted August 20, 2009 Posted August 20, 2009 I know this may have been gone over before but wondering what the vast majority of people use for hook size. Using Gamakatsu EWG's. Mainly fishing 4"-5" senko's as well as some long 10" and 7" powerworms. Quote
Super User .ghoti. Posted August 20, 2009 Super User Posted August 20, 2009 4" senkos 3/0 most of the time, 2/0 for a slower fal, 4/0 for a faster drop 5" senkos, 5/0 almost all the time For power worms, offset worm hooks, not EWGs. 4/0 mostly for 7" worms 7/0 mostly for 10" Quote
J-B Posted August 20, 2009 Posted August 20, 2009 Personally, for a 7 to 10 inch worm I would use at least a 4/0 or 5/0 or maybe even a bit larger. I selected the 3/0 by mistake I meant to click on the 4/0. Quote
Super User Wayne P. Posted August 20, 2009 Super User Posted August 20, 2009 You didn't have a large enough hook listed, so I did not participate in the poll. Quote
DINK WHISPERER Posted August 20, 2009 Posted August 20, 2009 You didn't have a large enough hook listed, so I did not participate in the poll. X2 I use 5/0 EWG hooks for those baits! Quote

basser89 Posted August 20, 2009 Posted August 20, 2009 I'm using a 5/0 Monster Gammy for the 10" Anacondas. I'll use a 3/0 or 4/0 straight shank Gammy for most of the other worms I throw. Obviously, bulkier baits I'll go to an EWG hook instead. Quote
catchbig0bass Posted August 20, 2009 Author Posted August 20, 2009 modified for bigger hooks. I have been mainly using Gamy 3/0 EWG's and just picked up the same only superline which seem thicker. For those 10" power worms I guess im going to have to get a pack of bigger ones however. Quote
Steven Ladner Posted August 20, 2009 Posted August 20, 2009 For 7-10 inch worms, I'll use 4/0-5/0. Quote
Super User J Francho Posted August 20, 2009 Super User Posted August 20, 2009 5" Senko: 3/0 Owner Wide Gap Plus or 2/0 Gam. Wide Gap Finesse for wacky 7" Power Worm: 4/0 Owner Offset Worm Hook 10" Power Worm: 5/0 Owner Offset Worm Hook Quote
