MagFluker Pro Angler Registered: 07/29/12 Posts: 837 Loc: NC (Formerly TX)	When using thicker plastics the wider gap allows the bait to bend or compress when the fish bites to expose the point of the hook for better hookup ratio. I tend to use them with all plastics. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GR6eOHIcI_Y _________________________ Faith. Family. Fishing. PB - 11 lbs 1 oz

Allen Bass Fisher Extreme Angler Registered: 08/05/04 Posts: 1931 Loc: Allen, TX	Huge gap....Wide gap. Wide gap hooks are good for large bodied baits like Super/Magnum Flukes, thick bodied creature baits, and large swimbaits.

Kyhokie Outdoorsman Registered: 01/07/16 Posts: 186 Loc: McKinney	@crankster I know it seems like they should affect the action of the bait, but I have seen no obvious drop off. I only use them on thick bodied plastics like creatures, as I prefer a regular offset worm hook for thinner baits. You got a great deal man! _________________________ The dude abides...
