What size weedless hook do you find yourself using the most?

-

STEWART HOLMES, BY EMAIL

HG says: It very much depends on the size of soft plastic I am using, but, for the most part, I will use the largest weedless hook I can get away with.

A soft plastic, such as the Fiiish Black Minnow, essentiall­y tells you which is the right hook to use, but for something like a 5in or 6in senko, or the 6in OSP DoLive Stick, I will turn to a 5/0 or 6/0 weedless hook.

Bass have big mouths, and you don’t need to worry at all that hooks like that might be a bit too big.
