I like the Owner EWG 5/0 for 10 inch worms.

Ryugi Pierce Brutal Hook The best one I've found is this one. I had a problem with worms slipping down the shank when setting the hook and this hook solved those problems. The screw keeper on this hook holds worms in place so much better than standard screw keepers. It comes in a 6/0 and 7/0. They also make the Ryugi Pierce hook in the 1/0, 2/0, and 3/0 size.

I've had good luck with the 4/0 & 5/0 TroKar Magworm EWG with the bait pin. Usually take the snips and trim a little off the pin to keep from tearing up the plastic as much.

10-4 on the Trojan with the keeper barb in the bend. I found using the screw keepers that I lost fish because the keeper kept the worm from sliding on the hook set thus not letting the point penetrate the worm. Found it to worst on smaller bass than larger ones

Straight shank always has the best hook up ratio as well.

Big worms won't hang straight with the straight shanks for me. Paul, I tried those Trokars as I love their flippin hooks, but I was having trouble with that keeper tearing up the head of worms. Any suggestions on how to prevent that?

Of course I use the same set up for flipping too 3/8-1/2 oz weight and 20 Seaguar Fouz... Come on man, put the worm on there straight and you don't have to worry about it.
