Jigging Rap Hooks
« on: Jan 12, 2014, 11:56 PM »
I know a lot of guys change the treble hook on the jigging raps. What size hook would you put on a size 3 & size 5?

Thanks

I think most are putting a longer shank treble on.
Also I've been giving the hook a slight bend out, so the point has a better hook ratio. Since doing that my hookup ratio has gotten better. Anyone else do this?

You don't dump many? I have size 8 vmc round bends and size 6 gamakatsu ewg for the size 5 raps and size 10 vmc round bends for the number 3 raps.might the size 6 be over kill for the #5s and make me miss fish due to being to big
