Interesting what hooks you are using. I like to go with a Got Stryper as they are very durable. I then use a 9/0 O'Shaughnessy, as it has a longer shank. I used to use a siwash until I was advised by a very good seasoned rat that suggested an increase in length will result in less missed fish when using a single hook. Made sense and it has worked out to be true. I also thread 30lb mono along the shank to better hold the rubber. The head goes over the eye of the hook giving it a more stealthy look and an ability to hold the hook better. I have never used the rs hooks. Just by looks they look a little flimsy. Do you find they are strong enough or have you had some straighten hooksThanks.
