mark poulson Posted February 16, 2016 Report Share Posted February 16, 2016 Is that the blade size? What about hook size, and wire gauge? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smalljaw Posted February 16, 2016 Report Share Posted February 16, 2016 I'm fortunate enough to have a great friend, Apdriver, and he modified an Ultra Minnow jig mold for me to not only take a swivel but also use the Eagle Claw 2831BP hook. I use the 1/4oz and 3/8oz cavities the most and I use a 3/0 hook in the 1/4oz and a 4/0 in the 3/8oz, for blades I like using a nickel #3.5 fluted willow. What makes the hook really good is it is not an Aberdeen hook, it is a little heavier but it penetrates just as easy and it has a long shank which is important on that minnow head. If I was using the pony head I'd still try to have the mold fixed to use the long shank hook. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

21xdc Posted February 16, 2016 Report Share Posted February 16, 2016 (edited) Sorry... I forgot to mention the hook size... 4/0 hook for me.. Lure choice dictates my hook size. Edited February 16, 2016 by 21xdc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
