Hey guys if you like throwing baits with treble hooks on them as much as I do,
I'm going to share with you a tip that's going to help you
just be a little bit more efficient with your crankbaits, jerkbaits, topwaters, whatever any
bait you're throwing with a treble hook. It's very important to have a good selection of good sharp
no rust hooks if you're around rock, around wood, and just a lot of times those really small trebles
will get bent over with just from catching fish. A lot of times it's very important to have a
good selection of treble hooks in different sizes and and such split rings, extra snaps,
treble hooks that's got feathers, and this is the way I keep them. This is just a
uh a little box that's got built-in dividers um I don't like the slide-in dividers because
split rings snaps hook points hook eyes will get caught underneath those little
slide-in tabs and uh it just creates a big mess. So these are built in that this is just the way
the the box is made. As you can see I just write treble hooks on there and I'll write
on there on the back the actual sizes um of the treble but most of my crankbait fishermen I use
Mustad KVD Elite Trebles or regular Mustad regular round bend treble hooks um KVD Elite Treble
is the is probably my my hook of choice, reason being it doesn't flex very much
and I'm allowed, I'm always able to use one size. It's a bad part about a treble hook boxes
you get so many in there which is good because you you've always got a really good selection
but yet sometimes you got to really shake them. So I can go up a size, that is a two,
and I'll put that on a 1.5 uh I'll put it on uh even uh like uh series fives and things like that.
I can go up a size, whereas a series five would normally come with um with like a maybe a three or
a four on it. I can go up a size and get a bigger bite allowing better opportunities to to you know
hook and land more fish. And then in a round bend just the regular uh, I put that in in the
wrong spot, but then the same hook in the regular round bend is just a regular round bend treble
like that. So the Mustad regular and then the Mustad KVD Elite treble are my favorites. There
every now and then I'll have a niche type uh hook where I really need a really light wire hook to
if a bait is made it's so finicky and you've got to really uh use something that is lighter than
the most you know common hooks then I've got a few specialty type hooks in here and stuff like that
but most of my fishing is done with the KVD Elite trebles and the round bend trebles. I've got them
in sizes sixes all the way up to a three ought and again I have a box in here that's got the Mustad
feathered trebles in here that I put on um like KVD splashes and things like that I'll even throw
a hook like this on a jerkbait from time to time if I feel like they're really keying in on that
you know perch and I want to really draw their attention to something
they're short striking it. And then notice I've always got some split rings and snaps,
extra oval type rings for the front of crankbait and I and I keep this compartment always empty.
There's a few in here now and I'll throw those away because keeping this one empty allows me to
not throw a hook in the in the like in the lake or something like that if it's if I'm in a hurry I've
got that open slot for my used I know that that little slot right there is for used treble hooks.
So from time to time when I'm adding new hooks to this I'll take that compartment and
I'll just throw it away leaving that open for use trebles. So this is just a way that I like to stay
efficient with my treble hooks if you guys get you a box set up like this it'll really make sure that
you've got good sharp hooks on your top waters uh and all of your crankbaits so just helps you be a
more efficient angler. And you can find many of these products at midwayusa.com.
