For those wanting weighted swimbait hooks with a lip plate will want to check out the Crankbait Style Lip Weighted Fishing Hooks (Size 3/0).
These are interesting because the hook is like an Extra Wide Gap Hook but the weight on the center of the hook and a lip plate right on top. So, what you can do with these hooks is connect a 3.5″-5″ paddletail artificial lure. No screw needed, just use the 1/8 weight that is on the hook.
The weight is on the belly area and these hooks help mimic real baitfish, while the lip plate design helps create a crankbait wobble.
You get about five hooks total for under $17 and while some may find it pricey, it’s not exactly a hook you can find anywhere else with a lip plate and weighted belly area.
If you are willing to experiment with a weighted hook with a lip plate, definitely give the the Crankbait Style Lip Weighted Fishing Hooks (Size 3/0) a try!
