Spro jig hook debate
Spro type guppy jigs are among the most popular jigs used for Fluke/summer flounder. What are your favorite hooks to make these?
Duratin= a forged silver hook, tin coated for rust resistance. One argument here is that if you "file" the hook to sharpen the point, the tip area will rust faster due to removing the protective coating. I feel that the forged shank does make it very strong for it's size.
Black Nickle= This hook has a dark brownish/black appearance. These hooks have a very sharp point, for good penetration during the hook set, and most people I talk to claim they are very strong. Any comments on rust resistance?
Any comments on hook brand, forged, wire etc?
