Gamakatsu® Monster EWG (Extra Wide Gap) Hooks
Based on the proven wide gap hook design, Gamakatsu's Monster EWG (Extra Wide Gap) Hooks are large enough for the biggest tube or swim baits and are strong enough to pull the most stubborn fish out of heavy cover. Made form high carbon steel, the Monster EWG's improved shape and super sharp point is in line with the eye to deliver the positive hook setting power trophy bassers require.

I used the larger hook with the money hound and 50 lb braid. I have fished over cover I wouldn't dream of fishing before and catching monster bass.

Rated 5 out of 5Â by Sketer The only hook for Money Hounds!
Looking for a hook to match your Money Hounds, then the 6/0 or preferred 7/0 Gamakatsu Monster EWG is your hook. You can't hardly find them in stock at the retail outlets, but you can get them via the catalog. Rig weedless with braided line, and you can walk the dog through the thickest of cover.
Tight lines <*))))))><{

The Monster EWG was used with a Money Hound. They are so wide that I could leave the point out of this thick lure (I have no problems with weeds). They are very strong yet set well. I used them against the hard hitting salt water trevally and was successful. I'm very satisfied with the Monster EWG!

Besides being used for big bass in heavy cover, would these hooks, particularly the 6/0 and 7/0 sizes, be good to use for soft plastics on pike and muskie?Answers

No, the eye is not welded, and; I also use superlines with this hook and have not had a problem "yet".Top 50 Contributor

No, it is not. Gamakatsu's super braid hooks are the way to go if you are using heavy test.Details:Â
If it is, do you have any recommendations for non-offset hooks?Thanks,

I use Gamakatsu EWG Monster 6/0 for fishing the 10 inch Rage Tail Anacondas.A:Â
I use the Gamakatsu round bend offset shank hook in a 4/0 or 5/0 and add a XPS Tungsten weight in the appropriate size. If you have trouble with the worm sliding up the line after a hit,add a Parasite worm clip.Top 250 Contributor
A:Â
I use a size 5/0 or 6/0 depending on the thidkness of the worm.Top 500 Contributor
A:Â
IMO you should use this hook in the 6/0 or 7/0 size for that size worm. I use the 6/0 for my Zoom Old Monster worms.1 of 1
