Make Your Own STINGER HOOKS - CHEAP!!

HELLO people of the internet! Welcome to another "how to" video. In this week's video I break down how I tie up my own stinger hooks for hair jigs. They are such a simple insurance policy, and have saved many of my guide trips (and tournament days) over the years. With a few minutes, some basic materials, and this video (or any of the myriad of others that exist), you can save yourself some money and make a fully customized hook that fits your hair jigs PERFECTLY.


Here's what you need:


-20lb mono (or copolymer line - not straight fluorocarbon - it's too stiff to lock down on the jig)
*you CAN go lighter - I go heavy because I fish these around rocks and zebra mussels*


-Size 10 treble hooks - I like the VMC 9650


-Small PLASTIC beads - inside hole diameter should be barely enough to get your line of choice doubled up


-A jig, made of a scrap piece of wood and a couple of brad nails - space the brads to your desired stinger hook length


-A bodkin (fancy fly tying term for a needle on a stick) or a pen, whatever you have


-A lighter *OPTIONAL (cheap insurance that your knot won't slip apart)
