Bass Fishing Gear Guides
Soft Plastic Jerkbait Gear Guide
Overview
The Mustad Ultra Point represents the culmination of over a century of hook making experience by one of the world's oldest hook manufacturers. The Ultra Point incorporates the three-stage Opti-Angle sharpening technology which creates a true needle point that is stronger and resists bending better than conventional points while still providing a sticky-sharp hook. Mustad uses premium high-carbon steel that has been specially Nor-Tempered to increase strength as much as 30% over conventional tempering methods while still avoiding brittleness. The red finish resists corrosion and helps keep your hook needle sharp, fish after fish and that extra flash of red will often trigger a strike from aggressive bass.
Mustad Power Lock Plus Weighted EWG hooks are the right tool when you're using thick plastic baits since the body of the bait can be pressed down farther, exposing more of the hook point for a deep, solid hookset. The Mustad Power Lock Hooks feature a weight molded on the shank of the hook and a long plastic keeper on the eye for a very clean, neat, compact rig. Use the Power Lock Hook for soft plastic frogs like the Sizmic Toad or the Horny Toad, for soft jerk baits and Senkos or your favorite plastic worm. These Hooks also work excellent with the Basstrix Baits. Different weight and hook combinations are available.

Comments: The pin system for holding the bait is a JOKE unless you plan on using super glue to hold you bait on. Shame on any manufacturer that uses these "pins". They must be really cheap, that is the only reason manufactures could possibly use them.

Comments: I dont know how to feel about this hook, it caught me fish but i did have some issues with the bait keeper.

Comments: I used these hooks fishing the flats for reds and they kept my bait up on the eye of the hook very well even after catching a half a dozen fish or so. The weedless feature is great for fishing grass flats or even just trying to get real skinny near the bank. They are my go to hook now. I think the pin is better than the twist lock it is easy to use and keeps your bait on great and I haven't been able to find any other hook company that makes one similar to this. I recommend it not sure why so many people gave bad reviews, new things aren't for everybody though.

Comments: Got a bunch of these in a subscription box. Not a fan of the bait keeper, but I just took them off and put hitchhikers on. Other than that I like them.

Comments: The hook is great. Power lock system not so much. I ended up taking the power lock off and putting twist locks on.

Comments: These hooks use to be my go to hook all of the time for Senkos and swim baits. Then they changed the way that the pin is secured to the hook. As you can see it now has an open eye. It use to be closed and the pin would not separate from the hook. Now they are just a pain in the butt because the pin seperates from the hook frequently. I guess they saved a penny or two by changing the design, but now they are just about useless.

Comments: Work's for me. I use them with Flukes, Senkos, etc. Push it in part way, and run your hook into the bait. Bait will tear where the hook goes through after some fish, then push the insert in all the way, and put the hook through the bait in a new hole. Good hook up ratio to hits. Screw inserts tear out, and ruin the head on the bait after a hit or two...these you can reinsert.

Comments: Couldn't be more disappointed. Thought I'd save a tiny bit going with the Mustad instead of my normal go to Owner with twist lock. I fish swim baits about 70% of the time. This power lock plus junk on this Mustad's is horrible. A complete waste. After one or two fish the power lock rips free and pretty much won't stay in the swim bait. I can get 10 fish on one Owner with twistlock compared to a couple on the Mustad's. Don't waste your money on these. Not worth it.
