Choice of worm hook?

keithdog · 06-29-13, 08:49 AM

I rarely fish any soft plastics over 7 inches. Mostly I am pitching creatures, tubes, and 6 inch worms. I recently picked up a package of 8" Mann's Jelly Worms and longer 11" swim tail worms. It's been many years since I've used longer worms. For those of you who do, which hook style and size would you recommend? My hooks are all EWG hooks for soft plastics, but with longer worms, especially the Jelly Worm which has a thicker body than most, I was thinking a hook like the Gamakatsu offset worm hook as seen here in a 5/0 would work best. Would you recommend something else?
