New for 2010 Honey Hole Spring Hooks!
Frank Villa on the New Honey Hole Hooks
I
recently began using the Honey Hole Spring Hook with great success. I
use it with Frogs, Texas rigged worms, Carolins rigging, it doesnt
matter this hook really works. The hooks are sharp right out of the
package and I never had to pre sharpen them like some hooks I have
tried. They work great with beaver style baits such as the Saurkraut
from Fatbassbaits.com pictured here. This new and innovative design
gets rid of the hassle of tryng to work with a hook that has the spring
seperate from the hook itself, this one is all in one! It makes
hooking up a soft plastic bait quicker and easier, perfect for
tournament or weekend anglers. I give this hook 5 stars they work
awesome!

Naked Bait CoTumbleweed's Take on the Honey Hole Spring Hook
MLB players do not walk to the plate with a random bat.
Tiger Woods does not use a generic set of golf clubs while on Tour.
Even fisherman are now finding out the benefits of using technique
specific gear, such as flipping sticks for heavy cover situations.
Honey Hole Hooks has just made an entry into the hook market
that is sure to shake up the industry. The Spring Hook in 3/0
(more sizes and variations will be available soon) is a great hook
for soft plastics and will extend the life of even the softest plastic
lures. With the unique spring lock in the place of the regular hook
eyelet, the plastic is able to be threaded on to the hook. I have
found this hook to have three immediate benefits.
1) First off: An angler is going to save a lot of soft
plastics, and each one will last longer. The lure has a tendency to
rip less, as well as stay properly rigged for an efficient
presentation. This also benefits the environment as it is less likely
to fall off the hook into the lake.
2) In situations where a weedless presentation is mandated,
this hook is the most weedless hook on the market. The spring lock
actually grips the plastic and resists vegetation or other objects in
the water from slipping the plastic down the shank of the hook. Texas
rigged with the spring lock and the barb of the hook buried just
beneath the the soft plastic, you will find you have a soft plastic
that can go into the jungle, and come out unscathed.
3) On rigging soft plastics, hitchhikers, screw-locks, and
other barbs and keepers have been utilized to keep a lure rigged
properly. There is one major difference from many of these, for
instance lets take the soft plastic boot tailed swimbaits. These
popular baits only are effective when rigged straight. Since our
spring lock is part of the hook, they do not bend or shift like they
would on the hooks the the little screw lock attached to an eyelet.
