wide gap hooks

[Chrisper4694]

swimbaits rigged weedless and thrown on the edge, into, on top of, and through are one of my favorite lures to use for lm bass, pickerel, muskie, etc. the usual 'wide gap' hooks sold at the store that you can use in this manner are not wide enough for the swimbaits i like to use. The only ones i've found that are big enough to give me a good hook up ratio are the 'owner BEAST' ones. Ramsey has them...sometimes, usually they're out of the size i want haha. anyone know of any good really wide gap hooks? maybe ones that aren't 8 bucks for a pack of 3 weighted hooks and 6 bucks for 3 unweighted?

Gami, falcon, omtd, and decoy all make a comparable hook...weighted and unweighted. Search around and you'll find them for a tad less than what you're paying...

I use gamikatsu wide hooks and have never had an issue, I think they're like $4 for 6

There's a reason why those Owner Beast hooks cost so much. Stick with them. Search on amazon and ebay and you can pick them up for around $4.

you have a point haha

I can sometimes get them for around $3. If I see them, I'll PM you and give you a heads up. I typically use 4/0, 5/0 for jerks and swimbaits, 8/0 for 9" super worms.
