How you only have just under 25k subscribers is beyond me! Learnt so much from your videos and the fish catching is quality too! You and Andy's fishing are 2 of the most underrated fishing accounts for sure.
Great video. My problem has always been Redfish, Bluefish, and Jack Crevalle bending out hooks on smaller lures between 3"- 3 1/2". Standard production hooks or replacement round bend 1X hooks from VMC bend out very easily unless I am using a light rod and light drag. That extends the fight and puts more stress on the fish. I have used Owner ST-41 in larger sizes but never in sizes smaller than #2. I think I am going to try them or the BKK hooks. I will use them on topwater walking baits, suspending twitchbaits, and jerkbaits.
Hey John, another awesome vid, its so good that youre out there sharing your knowledge and getting people keen!!! Keep em coming mate, I'd love to see a vid on your boat setup, I'm going to downsize my 4.4m centre console to a setup like yours soon so I'd love some info or tips on what you've come across while fishing out of your rig!!! Thanks again legend!!!
Hey mate...in in the market for a new boat for lake and bass fishing...could you give me a idea of the best boat? I need a casting deck as I like casting at snags...I already have a electric motor...my limits 7k cheers mate
Definitely worth looking at. I haven’t used them enough to make comment on this size of lure in particular. Maybe more with my offshore gear in the coming months ;)

Hey John, i am fairly new to lure fishing. What trebles sizes do you recommend? Especially for lures like the ripstop?
Hey mate. Generally 2x strong size 6 owner trebles ;) good stuff mate
Please suggest me size trible hook for rapala ripstop 12cm
What size is that bkk raptor z?

quintrex explorer trophy 3.7 or 3.9
There’s plenty of options. I know the Quintrex range as that’s what I’ve got. Luke’s message reply would be my go too these days for sure ;)
Mate would those 3x bkk raptorz work well on 100mm soft vibes or are they too heavy?
I reckon you’d get away with a size 6 on the front. Maybe not across both. Samaki do em As standard I’m pretty sure.
What brand split rings are u using?
I like owners, cultiva and decoy
what about inline single hooks?
Definitely worth looking at. I haven’t used them enough to make comment on this size of lure in particular. Maybe more with my offshore gear in the coming months ;)
What about st-66's?
100% mate. They’re a damn good option. Hardy as all hell too
so your more worried that tearing a hole in the fish can help it lose your hook than the fact of tearing a f,kn large hole in a fish
