Snagging Rig Hooks???

Hey Hey your local Crazy here!!!! :affraid: What size hooks do you use for your snagging rigs????I'm thinkin 7/0 - 10/0 but I've seen smaller???I'm thinkin bigger cause of the size of the bass your targetting???Any thoughts would be cool!!!!!!!!!



:scratch: FC :scratch:

I go with a 10/0 on the ocean/side..The bunkers must be on the beach.. :twisted:

YO YO YO JOE THNKS FOR THE INPUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

10/0 now baby!

depends i'll usually snag with one rod and fish with the other. to fish them i use about 7/0, to snag i use 10/0 weighted treble or if they are out a ways use a 10/0 unweighted and crimp an egg sinker about 1 ft from the hook. on 50lb mono. snag and flip the baitrunner and hold on.

10/0 all the way!!!

Yea I've always used 10/0 but I saw guy's usin smaller the other day and was thinkin maybe they knew somethin I didn't??I guess not!!!

Hey salt, I was there between 6:00 and 6:30. Bunch of guys fishing but didn't see any landed? Was the bite earlier or later?

It was earlier, but I heard that they came in at Ocean Grove around the fishing pier later. It was as usual a chinese fire drill with all the action. One guy had three on the beach all of em over 20 lbs in my estimation. They are right on schedule according to last year and the year before. Keep an eye on Allenhurst this week etc, they are due.... salt

Hit in and around Bayhead this afternoon evening nothin.Could've cut the mist with a knife!!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah, if you can get down there regardless of the time or tide you have a chance to score.... Tell ya though, that jetty jumping etc is a young mans game, by the time I get there I am too pooped to pop..... salt

I also have the smaller treble with an egg sinker. I have yet to use it but picked up the idea at Surf Day a few years ago. The idea was to just slightly nick the bunker leaving more hook exposed for an easier hook set.

It is actually doubled through the egg instead of crimped on.
