Why the Skip Gap hook?

[nathanielrthomas]

I see a lot of people are using skip gap in another thread... Whats the benefit of the skip gap versus regular EWG? Ive never used the skip gap. I primarily use 3/0-5/0 EWG Gamakatsu or Trokar.....

IMO The skip gap helps keep your soft plastic bait from sliding down the hook
comes in handy when you are skipping under docks and lay downs

Another big advantage of the skip gap other than not having to readjust your worm is it really helps to reduce wear n tear so you won't go through your plastics as fast

So what your saying is you think they are junk and wouldn't waste the money

Nope. I love em and have been known to give a few away with worm orders now and then. Think ill stock up on em since they are on sale (2 packs of 25 3/0 usually lasts me the year)

Oh i totally read between the lines, my philosophy is the less your worms get torn up the more fishing time for me!!!!!!!!
