Hooks, gamakatsu, mustad, lazersharp eagle claw,?

i want to buy a worm hook so i can texas rig it (weedless) which hook brand should i buy, i need some sugestions like brand and ewg or someting

Hooks, gamakatsu, mustad, lazersharp eagle claw,?
My opinion is Gamakatsu 3/0 extra wide gap. This has always been my normal hook. When you start getting into jerk baits like flukes and others similiar, I usually move to a 4/0, same brand and gap.
Reply:There's nothing wrong with Mustad or Eagle Claw, but personally I prefer either Gamakatsu, Matzuo, or VMC wide gap hooks. Lately I've been using the VMC Fast-Grip Wide-Gaps. They have a multi-stage barb that I think not only sets and holds better, it also does less harm to the fish.
Reply:hi there when it comes down to hook choice it is very important do u want a long shaft short shaft barb or not thin wired or thick laser sharpened points etc etc now on the list u put i would go with mustad they are a very well made hook and strong now my other choice would be kamasan but i do not no if u get them over there and i think kamasan make the best hook for texas rigging good luck


tight lines
Reply:Gamakatzu 2/0 or 3/0 EWG here! Or Owner Offset in 2/0 or 3/0.








(I think Gamakatzu is one "sharp as sh_t" hook. They work very well.)
Reply:All make excellent hooks. It's all about personal perference. I like the sharpness of gamakatsu, unless if I'm using circle hooks, then mustad.
Reply:This is what I use.

Reply:all the mentioned hooks can be texas rigged but I have preferred gammy hooks in a 3/0 wide bend.
Reply:Owner Gamakatsu lazersharp there all good just match your hook to the size of the worm.
Reply:Gamakatsu is the strongest sharpest hook out there i would go with it!!! 3/0
Reply:Gamakatsu is more expensive but a very high quality hook.
Reply:I use a 3/0 gamagatsu ewg offset shank worm hook for most of my texas rigging, unless it is for senkos. Then i use 4/0 gamagatsu ewg offset shank worm hook.





good luck!
Reply:gamakatsu 2/0 or 3/0 depending on the length of lizard/worm/tube,etc.
Reply:Mustad will be your cheapest option and I have not had enough problems to warrant the extra cost. Gamakatsu is a better hook but you will pay for that luxury.
