(read all my Q&A)
Answers

A:
Sorry to say that unless you used super line the hook is to heavy for small baits, suggest another.Answers
Top 250 Contributor
A:
Use the 5/0 hook in either 3/16 or 1/4 ounce size.
Top 100 Contributor
A:
The 5/0 will work good here. The 6/0 will work as well but will hang down below the belly more, which will actually act like a keel.The 5/0 will also act like a keel but will be a little better in the weeds because it hangs tighter to the bait. Get one each. experiment. different size and weight will affect the action. Wobble and rate of fall will give you options depending on the mood of the fish.

I like to use a 3/16oz or a 1/4oz with a 5/0 if it is too big dont screw the bait all the way to the nose.A:
Depending on the size fish that are in the lake I'd usually use a 4/0 or 5/0.Answers

Same as freshwater. Screw the bait onto the hook holder and pass the hook through the bait.

I use a 4/0 hook with the Shadalicious. It seems to work well for the fish in my area. You'd only want to go bigger or smaller if the fish are bigger vice versa.Answers
Top 250 Contributor
A:
Yes they work well. Use the Gamakatsu skip gap hook in 5/0.
Top 10 Contributor
A:
They work great on these!A:
Work nice!! It is a nice combo.
Top 100 Contributor
A:
It would be a little large and heavy for a zoom super fluke
Top 500 Contributor
A:
I've use them with "Zoom" like flukes, not the actual "Zoom" brand. Worked very well. The key Is to take your time a rig them straight , to get them to run true.Hope this helps

Top 10 Contributor
A:
Whatever size hook which goes back about 1/3 to 1/2 the length of the bait.A:
at least a 4-0.Answers
Top 250 Contributor
A:
The hooks are weighted.A:
No, the weight is built into the hook.
Top 10 Contributor
A:
You can use tehm with or without weights.A:
No, the manufacturer has balanced the weight by its placement. Adding weight would hinder your baits action.
Top 50 Contributor
A:
You shouldn't need any weights with these, since their is already a weight included on the shaft of the hook. These are meant for rigging swimbaits so that you don't need a weight on your line, because the weight is already on the hook.1 of 1
