How many have tried these? Do you like them compared to conventional drop shot hooks, and why?

I know part of the lure of these hooks (pun intended!) is that they reduce line twist and eliminate the need for a swivel.

Just curious what kind of success and comments are out there on these.

Thanks!

Jim

Thanks David!

By the way, Carlos at River-a-tackle now has his available on his website as of today. I just ordered a few packs of 5 hooks. He also has drop shot weights to go along with them.

I'm surprised VMC didn't make some like River A Tackle's new ones. Carlos has made an awesome product that's going to sell like crazy!
