As Toby says. When I fished plugs (which I don't anymore) I always had split rings on the belly and tail hook. By putting a split ring the bass doesn't have the opportunity to get leverage on the hook.
By the way, for all you plug ho's, I have over 700 plugs that will go up for sale soon. I'm gonna do lots of 5 and 10. Some of the real old plugs which are one of a kind will go alone.
Between bunker spoons, live bunker and eels, I just don't throw plugs anymore. 40 years of throwing wood and plastic is enough.
