I use either Kranks or ESP Claw Hammers for spinners. V confident in both.

I like the way the hook sits when using a kicker. Looking forward to test it in 2 weeks.

I dropped a few fish on Ronnie's using curves so binned them off. Recently tried them again with size 4 Kranks and the hook holds were superb.

That's the size I prefer too. Korda do a stronger version too, the X, I've never used those though.

Thinking Anglers size 4 curve points (wide gapes)

I also use a slip d for the hair to get a bit of proper separation (I have the loop in between the barb and the point as I think this is more aggressive than having it by the bend)

Lost a few fish on my last trip using Size 4 Muggas.

Was looking at trying a wide gape, possibly Kranks?

Any recommendations?
