At times, standard drop shot hooks may rig off kilter, resulting in lower hook-up ratios. The Standout Drop Shot Hook remedies that problem by rigging straight and perpendicular every time. For proper rigging, tie directly to the Standout Drop Shot Hook's bend and pull the tag end through the eye of the hook. Drop shot baits now stay in an upright position, offering proper bait presentation and better hook-ups.
Comments: If you fish for crappie and you're having a tough time, try this - use these standout hooks with a long tag end and instead of using a drop shot sinker, tie your crappie jig to the bottom and bait the the standout hook with a live minnow. If they won't hit one, they'll hit the other, sometimes both at the same time! If they grab the minnow off the hook, you still have the jig.

Comments: I wanted to like these hooks. They are a great idea in theory, but there are a couple issues with them. If you are fishing for spots in a deep school thats fired up... These work great. If you are fishing in super clear lakes where everything needs to look natural, you will get less bites on these hooks than traditional dropshot hooks or mosquito hooks. Usually when I fish a dropshot, its because the fish are really finicky and wont bite bigger baits or lures, etc. I pull out a dropshot when Im having a terrible day power fishing. After trying these hooks with a 3in roboworm swimbait and not doing that well either, the next day we did a test. Same baits, same line, same 1/8th oz weights, same distance up from weight. this hook vs a mosquito hook. The mosquito hook had more than double the bites. 8 bites to 3. This was on dale hollow, early fall. The fish can see all the extra hook in clear water. With the mosquito, we could rig it where most the hook was covered. With this one, you have that extra back part with the loop and the bend. The other problem was that these standout hooks have a nasty habit of getting tangled all funky in the line, especially when fighting a fish or getting a brief snag while hopping it. I thought about using one of the swivel dropshot hooks, but thats still more hardware that the fish can see. So I'm just gonna stay using my mosquito hooks, stickies, and gamakatsu dropshot hooks. Just tie a palomar knot and run the tag end back through the loop of the hook. Actually after watching a lot of the underwater footage of dropshots on youtube, I think the baits look better and flutter better on a regular tied hook anyways. Tiny swimbaits look like they are dying minnows, and finesse worms have all kinds of up and down fluttering movements. On the standout hooks, and the side swivel hooks, the super short baits are sticking straight out and almost seem stiff and unnatural, the longer worms flutter, but not as natural as they do with just the hook to fluoro. So a standard hook to line has a more natural look and better action.

Comments: Good idea but... not sharp. The material is very soft and you have to sharpen it from time to time. From: Vlad: McKinney 7/15/19
Comments: It is only drop shot hook I have ever used. Red version doesn't set hook as well as black version which holds em good for many fish. This hook is the best because it allows a natural presentation when bait is dropping when active fish often hit. It also always positions worm perfectly when on bottom. I originally thought it was too much hook but that has never been an issue.

Comments: Hook up percentage is great and they are strong. They do stand out straight. However these hooks become a tangled mess after a catch. Sometimes so bad you have to cut and tie again. Think I'm going with the swivel style next time.
Comments: Great hooks, great price, strong, pretty sharp! I've been racking in the smallmouth with these in coupled with a roboworm. They really do stand straight out. It does have a tendency to get a bit tangled up after a catch or two but overall awesome.

Comments: Im a Trokar guy all the way, but when it comes to drop shotting, these stand outs are bar none the best. Not gonna say they are the sharpest, but keep a sharpener with you and these will never fail you. Dont like a palomar knot on these, look up the Shaw Grigsby knot on Youtube and tie it on one of these. Havent broken off since with fluorocarbon. Daiichi killed em with this genius idea!!

Comments: This is the only d.s. hook that allows bait action on the drop imo. Forget that swirly stuff, u want the bait to swim down. Not a fan of the red model tho, doesn't have the same hook up ratio. From: Bigpoppabass: Nashua, NH
Comments: Love the hooks! It will be hard for me to try anything else for drop shot. I love the concept. They have been an excellent upgrade from standard drop shot hooks. Hooks stand straight out. They bite... they're hooked. What more could I ask?

Comments: Best dropshot hooks I have ever used.Never fail to stand out properly and sticky sharp! From: S: NC
Comments: Probably my favorite DS hook, with a close second being the Gama DS/SS. Has a nice shape point & holds up well, even after many fish. The bend with eye below design makes the bait stand out better than any other hook I've used & the only time I swing & miss are on those nibbling gills. The fact that they're priced very friendly only makes them more impressive from my perspective. I'd recommend these to anyone who drop shots to try, they perform & even if you don't like them, they're not wallet breakers.
