Big Epp Posted February 14, 2022 Report Share Posted February 14, 2022 What is your favorite hook for crappie jigs? I've read size 4 and 6 are popular sizes. And the eagle claw little nasty ones look cool. I started making my own jigs squeezing split shot onto hooks. I don't have a mold at this time. The ones I've made so far are with split shot and Aberdeen hooks I bent with wire benders. I figured it would be easier to buy jig hooks than bend my own, and stronger too.

toadfrog Posted February 14, 2022 Report Share Posted February 14, 2022 Generally use Eagle claw hooks for myself . No. 4 0n plastics and 6 on ties . Generally gold or little nasty black platinum. Victory hooks will work for crappie and such too. No need to invest in expensive hooks for delicate fish. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smalljaw Posted February 14, 2022 Report Share Posted February 14, 2022 I use both the new Victory sickle hooks as well as the Eagle Claw Lil Nasty hooks. I use mainly a size 4 and I really like the sickle style hooks. They hold and hold extremely well. I've never lost a fish that was hooked with that style of hook. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cadman Posted February 15, 2022 Report Share Posted February 15, 2022 I'll second the Eagle Claw Lil Nasty hooks. They are extremely sharp and very affordable. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
