Bsampson Posted March 7, 2023 Report Share Posted March 7, 2023 I found some hollow body 68 specials. Has anyone fished these? If so, what are your thoughts and what hook fits best? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bud95 Posted March 7, 2023 Report Share Posted March 7, 2023 (edited) Huddbaits.com. They posted something about it yesterday. They come with an unweighted beast hook and nail weights for adjusting rof it looks like. Haven’t tried em yet but curious they would fish.

The $100 ones come with (5) 6" or 68 ROF5... even if you throw away the alabama rig you scoop the huuds for $20 each. Sorry I don't have anything helpful to add to the conversation.

Bsampson Posted March 7, 2023 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2023 Has anyone fished these? How’s the hook up ratio on them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With it rigged properly, the peak of the hook bend sits beyond the hook slot. It's perfectly keeled/balanced, yet I do not set how the hook point exposure/bite gap is ideal whatsoever. I've reached out to Hudd a few times regarding this without an answer. Maybe I'm doing something wrong, but I'm fairly confident I'm not. They should obviously be perfectly rigging and jacking some fish with good results prior to releasing these. Love Hudds, this is my first bad experience. Again, maybe it's my issue, but I've seen other feedback like this on IG as well. Loudsplashbassn_ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's been a guy Jacob Miller active on FB who I had been messaging about the bama rigs and stuff on the site, looks like he's the main contact these days, at least on the social media site. Haven't tried through ista, but FB was successful for me. Fatika79 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
