Changing Hooks On A Wiggle Wart

[Gavin]

I think that Warts come with size 5 trebles. Unfortunately, most folks only stock replacement hooks in sizes 2, 4, and 6...I'd go with #4's. Cheers.

I use a #4 mustad triple grip hooks to change out my Wiggle Warts and jerkbaits

I second the Mustad Triple Grip trebles, especially on crankbaits that are trolled, but they are great on just about any crank or jerk.

Can anyone post a pic of what color wiggle wart they use on the rock,any help much thanks.Snakem

Any crawdad colors are good on the rock this time of year. I went last weekend and had a limit that went about 16 pounds on the wart . My buddy was fishin a fire tiger wart and caught a 5lb large mouth. As for hooks i go with the EWG Gamakatsu size 4.

I, too, prefer the EWG Gamakatsu for crank baits. For topwaters I use roundbends. If you've read some of my other comments, you know I tinker with many baits. Oddly, I don't mess with the warts. The hooks that come on the original series just need a touchup with a file and work very well.
