thedonnguyen Posted September 1, 2017 Report Share Posted September 1, 2017 I've got about 15 or so. Still in my original 4. No issues that weren't expected. They're softbaits. Have caught dozens of fish on them up to 10#s Primus, nwkurt, LUV-2-CATCH'EM and 5 others 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lux036 Posted September 5, 2017 Report Share Posted September 5, 2017 The thing is its not really a true 10/0 soft bait. Maybe a 9/0 swimbait hook would work better. From my personal experience with this softbait, the 10/0 owner beast is just a tad too big and stretches the nose forward. With the slightest bite it tears the bait. I think an adjustment on the mold would fix this. Make the nose 1/4" longer to compensate for the length of the 10/0 owner beast hook.

Morph808 Posted September 8, 2017 Report Share Posted September 8, 2017 Trokar makes a 9/0 swimbait hook. Maybe that will do the trick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
