Depends on what you're fishing for/with.


No fish is too good for the grease.

Nothing wrong with treble hooks that cutting at least one point off won't cure.

Owners, and Gamakatsu make extremely fine hooks, in my opinion for conventional fishing.

Gamakatsu hooks are what I use for all my soft plastic rigging for bass.

HOU or anyone that can answer,

Gamakatsu make different type of hooks (offset, circle, g-lock, etc); what is the best type for T-rig, Wacky, etc; or can you use the same hook for all of them?

I fish Senkos and Lizards ALOT!! I use a 3/0 Offset EWG hook for the 5" lizzys and senko, and it doesn't matter if its Texas rigged, weightless, or wacky. I have caught more fish than I can count on one hook. I posted a link to them on BPS's website.

BTW, I step up to a 4/0 for the magnum lizards and bigger senkos. I also use there toad hooks for by soft plastic frogs.
