I strip my kastmasters and install a 150 lb. Sampo split ring on each end. Then I put on a 7/0-9/0 Siwash. Look for Siwash with straight point, not curved point, which don't catch as well for me. Stainless or tinned work. I like closed eye. Open eye stainless seem brittle and I've had quite a few break when crimping. The Siwash is a much stronger hook and drops less fish. Sharpen hooks though, not sharp enough from factory.
No dressing on hook. No loss in attention from bass, and when blues arrive nothing to worry about. Matches both herring and squid well. Adjust hook size depending on size Kastmaster.
