Hawg Hooker

hook selection for jigs

Recommended Posts

My question is... when i look at some of my store bought jigs,  i have noticed that the hooks are heavier gauge and size then the the ones i ordered from LPO last week. Obviously there are many brands and sizes to choose from. I bought 4/0 and 5/0 mustad, Gami and VMC 60 degree offset jig hooks. I figured that i would get a few different sizes and manufactures to see which would work best. All most all the store bought jigs have a heavier gauge and larger than a 5/0 hook when i compared them to the ones i purchased. I assumed that the 5/0 would be fairly large for most jigs...but obviously not. Do these manufactures have special hooks they use for there molds that are not usable in Do it molds? Thanks guys...hope this makes sense. Jason
