I replaced the stock hooks on my crankbaits with the EWG-71 SS and noticed a big difference in hookups. The fish stay hooked more often and the lure moves naturally. Great for panfish and small bass.
Kevin Alsop –
The hook slides smoothly and doesn’t catch on the lure’s body. I’ve used it on several crankbaits and it’s reliable in both still and moving water.
Evan Forsyth –
The shorter shank keeps the hook close to the lure, which improves the action. I’ve seen better hooksets since switching to this hook.

Works well with my bluegill and perch lures. The SS coating makes it easier to set the hook, especially in low-light conditions.
