hooks for beachmaster cowboys

I'm sure that some of us out here got some cowboys over the weekend from the saltwater edge


does anyone know what bobby recommends as far as hooks on these monsters....

5/0 looks like a good fit

siwash or flag on the back?

cut vmc's like the rest of his recommendations or are split rings fine.

thanks

jim

I think Bobby prefers 3 cut VMC's trebles. No siwash on the back. I think this is what I heard. I forget the size.

Nice meeting you on Friday

Andy

They don't need a tail hook.

That is how I like them. 4/0 VMC on belly and some bucktail on the rear.
