How heavy are the huddlestons? Also, i heard a rumor that they were coming out with a bass pattern. Anybody else heard this?

Huddlestondeluxe.com lists them as 5 oz.

I have 2 both with stinger hooks attached with wire. Here's my weights:

ROF 0 = 4.1 oz
ROF 5 = 4.3 oz

Jake,
Do you have a picture of the bait with the stinger hooks. I have not really found a setup I like. Most take away the natural look/movements of the bait.

I think I'm using the same setup as a lot of the other guys with the wire and crimps. If you use a black hook up front, it would be less visible. I just like the flash of the red hook. It really looks like flared gills. But, it might be a little too much for the Huds. I fish them really slow, so it might not have the same effect as other faster moving baits?
