question about the 3.5" Croaker
« on: 06/18/14 13:33 UTC »
I'm looking into this mold. I would like to know the maximum sized hook I can use with it.

I would use either a 5/0 Trokar corkscrew magnum swimbait hook like a TK160 or a 4/0 EWG worm hook. Is the body big enough to accommodate them?

The 4" will handle those hooks. I'm not sure on the 3.5". The 3 inch is a no.

The 5/0 will just fit the 3.5" Croaker.  The 4/0 is the much better fit but you can suit yourself.
