Treble Hook Caps

(1/1)

Alex Gomez:
Not sure if this is common practice or not but I have been fitting a lot of ST66 trebles to lures lately, I found that it is far safer if you put Owner hook caps on the trebles first!

Even if you are using barbless they still tend to sting a bit when they go in!

Courtland Babcock:
I don't like all my lures with hooks on them.

Not sure what everyone else does but I have changed to just 1 set of opened hooks. I will switch hooks, if appropriate size, when I change lures. Once hooks get wet they tend to start to rust, even the good ones. I have a shelf full of rusty st-66/76 that I won't use again because of it. Not to mention less of a chance of a stray hook finding a home in someone's foot or hand. Maybe just me, be careful.
