Single Hooks for Lures

#1 Post by blackwater1 »

Hello,
Can anyone recommend a good pattern of single hook for using to replace the trebles on my lures? I've seen a few on American tackle shop websites, but I'm not sure what is available locally.
Thanks.

I highly recommend the Decoy Pluggin Single 27 Hook, 7 sizes from 8 to 2/0, designed to equip your hard lures to replace a treble.

Same here. I find the 1/0 a good general size for most of the popular bass size lures. AGM do a cheaper ringed hook by Matzuo but the Decoys are very good.
