How To Choose The Right Hook! | Bass Fishing Tips for Hook Choice

Size really does matter when matching hook sizes with various soft plastic bass baits. The hook gap (area between the shank and hook point) has evolved into a key feature over the years with the introduction of several new soft plastic baits. The size of a hook is given in terms of the width of the hook’s gap; the most popular bass fishing sizes are listed as number 2, number 1, 1/0, 2/0, 3/0, 4/0 and 5/0. Hook selection is a personal choice for various soft plastics, but certain lures require particular types of hooks in certain sizes. Here, Jordan breaks down different styles of hooks and sizes and what's best for different styles of soft plastics.
