Which size hook are you guys using with Zoom Finesse Worms?

2/0 or 3/0 EWG's will get the job done.

Thanks for the feedback. I have some 2/0 EWG's and thoght they looked kind of small, but I wasn't sure.

I like using lighter wire straight shank hooks like the Roboworm Rebarb. EWGs tend to weigh finesse worms down and kill the action.

I prefer a 1/0 to 3/0 round bend Gamakatsu hook for most of my worm fishing. This hook will not take any action away from the worm. I would not use an EWG hook for finesse worms.

Gammy, 1/0 @ 2/0 depending on the size I am throwing.

1/0 or 2/0 EWG Gama on texas rig. I also whacky rig them on a drop shot with great success.

Agreed. I use a size 2/0 on a 4" and a 3/0 on a 6 inch. Always. Hate the EWG. Gammy Worm Hook Straight Shank is my first choice.

2/0 gammy for 4" worms

3/0 gammy for 6" worms

Worm hooks - do not use any offset worm hooks.

Another vote for a Gammy 1/0 or 2/0 light wire straight shank, but i put my own heat shrink as a keeper.

I started to use Decoy hooks instead of Gamakatsu for light wire now days. There is more domestic online shops carrying Decoy hooks now and they are priced around Gamakatsu hooks.
Here is one retailer http://www.thehookuptackle.com/product- ... gory=Hooks
