sweet hook. I like the hooks that slightly curve upward like that one. I think it keeps you from snagging the bottom at times. Not all the time, but some times. Another thing about hooks and sluggos is that you want the shortest shank possible. if you have a long shank, the sluggo will loose much of its action.. especially if that hook is in the rear of the sluggo.

In a pinch last year i used some VMC siwash hooks that i use for my plugs to rig sluggos and the long shanks just killed the action. ALso they are heavy.

little weight, short shank, sharp out of the package, a large eye on the end of the hook and a good barb is what i look for in a rigging hook.
