Some do some don't.

The worm hooks I use do.

Here is some product info on their website.

those are just "words" that say they do..when you look at them under the microscope they don't exist.

those pics are just of the tip; too small to see edges. you dont need a microscope to see the edges on owner or x-points.

David,

number 2 not 2/0. Mainly rig 4" baits on this hook. Baby ring fry and brushhogs.

Darrell,

No problem with that.

I just know that they are very sharp out of the package and I have confidence in using them.I have been using them for years.

Should I buy a microscope to prove them wrong? grin

Since I have retired from T.I. I don't have access to a microscope. grin

Yes same hook to rig the 10" worms.

You have to skin hook the point to get better hook ups.

you gotta see the fall action of the big worm on that small of a hook in a swimming pool.

With the smaller baits they have a really slow fall.

They really come up off the bottom on the pull.

For $10 a package I will stick with My Gammy's and Owners and just apply a little more pressure.

If you can not set the hook with A Gammy or owner then you need to hit the GYM!!!!

Let them come down to be competitive with other hooks and I may try them. Seems like hype to me.

I'd like to look at one of these hooks under a microscope.

Anyone got one of these hooks and a microscope I could borrow? grin
