What do you all prefer for a basic light Texas rig with the Pit Boss?
I've been using EWG almost exclusively. Should I consider changing to something else?
3/0 Owner straight shank or a 3/0 Beast Use a piece of heat shrink tubing to make a bait keeper on straight shanks that don't come with them

I use offset round bend. Baits wonโt last as long if that matters to you.

Had a partner clue me in on this hook a long time ago. I'm the only one I know that uses it but I love them. 3/0 on most things but 4-5/0 on big worms, full size brush hogs etc. I use an EWG on Flukes and occasionally on a bulkier worm. The design on these hooks tends to double hook them, through and through. There are times I wish they were a little stouter, as I've bent a few, but overall, it's my go to. https://www.tacklewarehouse.com/Lunker_City_Texposer_Worm_Hook_5pk/descpage-LCTEXPO.html

May want to try them out.
