Zoom Horny Toad
 
I tried the Horny Toad for the first time yesterday I rigged it on a 4/0 EWG
hook but it kept slipping down the hook. What are you guys who fish this
using for hooks? I did catch a few but it was getting frustrating because
the eye kept getting caught up in the weeds. Any help would be appreciated
I think I will use these more often if I can find the right hook.

Pat, I use a Gammie 3/0 EWG Offset and like it the best of any sizes I
tried so far.
