hook size

Post by meach »

I usually run a 4/0 wiegheted swimbait hook when throwing 5' swimbaits, my question is if lets say i run out of the 4/0 hooks would downsizing to the 3/0 affect the action of the lure??

you will be fine if you down size but I have noticed you dont get the wobble and depth from 4/0 ive also liked the 5/0 owner with a pinch weight placed just above the middle of the hook.
