Steve is right, but the problem is these hooks are hard to find, I normally use a number 8, A number 8 will catch any pan fish worth catching. Meal worms are a good bait, but "wax Worms" are better -- SpecTastic Wiggle Rig, Fishing lure remote control See lure video you won't believe http://ezknot.com/videos.html |

Meal worms are a good bait, but "wax Worms" are better Or just use a rat finkie jig. you can add a wax worm if the pan fish are not hitting hard on the jig alone. I have been using them for the last 5 weeks here in wisconsin and have pretty much limited out on pan fish every day that I have gone out... I have been using 10's and 12's... have landed a few 14 and 15 inch bass on them as well.. wasnt the intended fish, but hey, what the heck... A guy I work with turned me on to them. He swears by them.. doesnt use anything else for panfish... I am starting to have the same opinion of them as well.. Rick |
