Ecogear ZX Replacement Hooks

Hey People

Im just intrested to see how you
use the ZX hooks on other Brand (Blades/Vibes)
as an alternative and what you find are
the best Methods/Techniques Eg do you rig hooks
in middle or at the back of blade.

* Just quickly I have a couple of the ZX blades which
are great ,the other week I caught an average Flathead on
one and as I took the hooks out with small pliers, they just snapped off
is the common with them , As i have seen them hangng out the
mouths of some decent Flatties and Jews
I thought they would be strong as ??

Thanks heaps

Pig

I use the ZX hooks on my blades and some hardbodys...

On my VX's i'll remove both trebles and put the ZX hooks on the back.

On hardbodys I just replace the back treble with the ZX hooks.

I've had the hooks break from time to time, but not that often.

work super well off the back of blades
and also had great success using them as tail hooks for my surface lures.

Also great in the M and L sizes hanging off the back of vibes when your hoping them through schooled bass. Any fish that take a swipe get hooked!
