Default Het Rodney... Stand Up Hook

I have gotten feedback from two local pros on the stand out hook for use
dropshotting. One said they just love it (Dave Willhide), and the other
said they like it (Lannes Brock), but how come TJ doesn't make in a size
larger than #1.

I am personally indifferent about it after using it for some time. It works
well as a drop shot hook, but I am not convinced it is a "superior" drop
shot design as I drop shot rarely, and I am not aware of missing many bites
on any hook I have used.

They had to start somewhere, so they made it in sizes the drop shot
fishermen already use, next year look for them all the way up to 10/0
for salt water deep sea fishing, of course the smaller wire sizes but
bigger hooks for rigging bigger plastics

Of course fishermen demands could get them working on the bigger sizes
quicker
