biggfeast Posted October 5, 2015 Report Share Posted October 5, 2015 I haven't been fishing Hudds much as of late, maybe been about 2yrs, but I'm planning to get back to them this winter. When I did fish them I only used the Butch Brown rig. I was wondering if I should BB rig again or does the stock jig hook work well enough. BB rig worked well, but almost all of them would develop that big cut where the hook is placed in the back and it became a pain having to mend the rubber back together and would lose some fishing time. I'd like to know if the jig hook is good enough. Anybody that used/uses the stock jig hook, I'd like to hear your experiences. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogervang Posted October 5, 2015 Report Share Posted October 5, 2015 The only time I would use a treble is, if it doesn't come with a jig hook. biggfeast and Bmlum 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigpoppabass Posted October 5, 2015 Report Share Posted October 5, 2015 Guys out here use it. Butch rig can put action of whack sometimes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerrystowing Posted October 6, 2015 Report Share Posted October 6, 2015 I have ALOT of them so if it starts to tear a tad i switch baits and keep fishing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LMBass Posted October 6, 2015 Report Share Posted October 6, 2015 Not to hijack, but is there any reason to use a treble on a 68 or is the jighead sufficient? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maxwell S. Posted October 6, 2015 Report Share Posted October 6, 2015 I only use the jig hook. Especially now that Huddleston has the top hook ROF 5 modle. The baits (too me) move through the rocks better and give more solid hook ups. Only when the hooks is ground down to uselessness, do I cut it off and BB rig it. biggfeast 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm gonna give the jig hooks a go this winter and see how they perform. Just hoping I don't lose a giant in doing so lol Maxwell S. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YELOSUB Posted October 7, 2015 Report Share Posted October 7, 2015 (edited) Just a jig hook on the Hudd for me too...They tend to choke em' Edited October 7, 2015 by YELOSUB anglr420, Rogervang and biggfeast 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charlie.m.jr Posted October 7, 2015 Report Share Posted October 7, 2015 I use the jig hook on all of mine and haven't had a problem losing fish....yet anyway. Lol. When they eat it, they choke it down far enough that they aren't coming off. Plus I think the treble hook does more damage on a deep hooked fish as well. Just my opinion anyway.
