[quote Outfishing13]I'd like to know what others are doing for hooks they make their own rigs with.
Matthew[/quote][font "Comic Sans MS"][#800000][size 3]I don't make my own rigs; I just buy them. I do carry about 50 pre-made snelled 2-hook set-ups in my gear for quick replacement in the field. Snell them together at home and make them about 24" long and coiled up on Carlson Tackle Buddy tubes. I cut them to desired length based on what lure they will be used on. I currently tie everything on 15 lb test fluorocarbon line but am thinking about going to 20 lb when the 15 lb is used up.[/size][/#800000][/font]

[font "Comic Sans MS"][#800000][size 3]I use Gamakatsu Octopus hooks in red and in sizes 4 (closest to the lure) & 2 (furthest from the lure). The hooks are about one half inch apart.[/size][/#800000][/font]
