Thanks! I can understand the need for a lighter wire hook that can be bent out, and a heavier wire hook when you can get away with it. Do you feel that the sizes are making that big of a difference in your snag-up and catch ratios to justify 4 different rigs or are you still just experimenting to find the optimum 2? As I see it you've got
1)Heavy/Big for open water 2)Heavy/Small for moderately open water with lightweight snags that break 3)Light/Big for moderately open water with heavyweight snags that require bend-out hooks and 4)Light/Small for heavy cover and heavyweight snags.
Tight lines,
Wade
