The hook is up to you. I just match the hook to what I'm using on the C-rig(short for Carolina Rig). If I'm using say a 4" worm I might use a 1/0 hook, if I'm using a Super Fluke then I'll use a 5/0 hook. Lizards I like a 2/0 or 3/0. Tubes usually a 4/0. Lizards |

Re: hooks for Carolina rigs
I mostly use the 3/0 Mustad Mega EWG Hook, for one reason...It has a larger eye on it, and when you get a little older it sure is a lot easier to get the line in it. Thanks Lakeguide
