Deciding what Flippin’ hook you need doesn’t have to be rocket science.

Understanding Flippin' hooks is simple, but first you need to understand flippin' hook essentials, and from there you can fine tune based on your specific needs.

Essential Features of Flippin’ Hooks

Construction: A Flippin’ hook worth its salt must be constructed from high-carbon steel wire that’s treated to enhance strength. This gives you a hook capable of yanking big fish out of heavy cover.


Eye Design: You need a welded eye to keep your line from slipping or getting nicked by an open section of a normal ringed eye hook.


Keeper Efficiency: The keeper should be robust, capable of holding soft plastics securely as they punch, dive, and crawl through the dense cover where giant bass reside.


Hook Point Sharpness: The most critical feature is having the sharpest hook point possible, allowing for consistent penetration past the barb on hook sets.
