Pop Posted March 26, 2008 Report Share Posted March 26, 2008 Trying to find a straight worm hook for finess fishing, but for the life of me I can't find one. Looking for sizes 1, 1/0 and 2/0, and prefer Mustad Ultra Point but right now will settle for what I can get. I have check Barlows, Netcraft, Bass pro, Cabelas, and local shops to no avail. Maybe west coast people can help with what you use? Oh yes, I have searched the site, and nothing. Thanks, Pop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nova Posted March 26, 2008 Report Share Posted March 26, 2008 Have you looked at the Mustad Croaker hooks? www.novalures.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pop Posted March 26, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2008 Just looked at it. It isn't a straight shank and a worm hook would be fine or xtra fine. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nova Posted March 26, 2008 Report Share Posted March 26, 2008 What about a hook that's designed for fly tying a foam popper. It's a straight hook with a slight left/right bend in the middle to hold the popper in place. It should do the same for a worm. I don't know what the numbers are for the hook. Sorry. www.novalures.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pop Posted April 1, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2008 Thanks for all your suggestions. I found the Owner 5100 and it is perfect for finess fishing. Pop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ccunningham300 Posted April 2, 2008 Report Share Posted April 2, 2008 I would strongly recommend the rebarb hook found on roboworm.com.....the are extra sharp and have a barb that will not allow your worm to slide down the hook.....perfect for finesse fishing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
