What's up everybody, Gomikatsu, pro Mike McClelland and you know again I've
talked about a lot of different hooks
and I think again if you ask five anglers you're gonna get five different
answers but for me I
try to keep my hook choices relatively simple but
one of the hooks that Gomikatsu has had for many years and I've always been a
big fan of is the Gomikatsu
offset shank EWGs and you know the thing about the EWGs is they they've always
come in two different grade wires
You've got the super line and you've got your standard grade the thing that's
cool about
All these hooks moving forward is they're gonna be nano-alpha coated which is
it's a slicker
sharper
Better finish than anything that we've ever had the thing about it is it's a
finish that's almost never gonna rust and that's so
Important you know for any of us angles. I mean we spend time on the water in
the water in the rain and you want to hook
That's not gonna rest so the nano-alpha coating is gonna help with that factor
the thing about these two hooks
When you look at the reasons and the uses for just the offset shank EWG and the
superline EWG
Really anytime I'm fishing bulkier plastic baits that have thicker bodies
Tube style baits creature style baits, you know baits like this big bite. Yo
daddy baits like this
Big bite college crawl. I mean these are baits that the bodies are thicker
You know big big worms anytime you're fishing a bait that has a thicker body
The EWG is a hook that I like to use tubes is another bait that I love to flip
an EWG in
The difference in these two hooks is simply the grade of wire and the thickness
of the wire
If I'm fishing really really thick cover the superline hook, you know heavy
line thick cover vegetation
The EWG superline is gonna be the gamma-kotsu that I choose if I'm fishing
isolated cover if I'm dragging a Carolina rig
Any type of fishing I'm doing with a thicker body bait that I just need a
standard wire hook just a standard EWG
Gamma-kotsu is gonna be the one that I turn to so if you're looking for that
hook that will work in a lot of different
situations be sure and check out the gamma-kotsu EWGs in the superline and the
standard wire
