Q.Fishing Gear & Tackle

What hook size for freshwater bass fishing?

A.

Match hook to plastic. 4-6 inch worms: 3/0-4/0 EWG hooks. Senkos and stick worms: 4/0-5/0 wide-gap. Creature baits and jigs: 4/0-5/0. Drop shot: 1/0-2/0 finesse hooks. Big swimbaits and large soft plastics: 6/0-7/0. Use heavier wire hooks for braid and flipping; finer wire for spinning gear and finesse presentations.
