Last fall I lost a lot of fish on spinnerbaits ,so as an experiment I cut
the hook off of two of my most productive colors, heated the shank and
installed a red treble hook ..My catch rate didn't improve [ because of
the red hooks ] but my boating the fish went up slightly.
I hope to have a better idea of how well this works come spring

Anybody using this thing? I am torn. I have been switching my rear hook
on
crank baits to a one size up Excalibur rotating hook, but this thing looks
interesting. If set up propery it should ride large point up for more
boney
plate hook ups in the roof of the mouth. Thats the type of hook up I get
most of the time fishing stick worms wacky style, and I know how few fish
I
lose that way, but you don't go for that kind of hammer blow hook set with
a
crank bait. I have started training myself to set the hook by sweeping
the
rod to one side while continuing to reel instead of a snap set, and it is
working, but this hook looks like it might lend itself to harrder hookset.
