Inline hook recommendations for the Rapala Finesse Minnow (2 1/2 in)
I’m not a fan of using trebles for trout so I was curious if anyone has a good recommendation for an inline hook for these lures. Thanks so much!

I put some vanfook PLB-59F hooks on there. I’ve played around with some different options and the vanfook seems to be the best. Gamakatsu siwash hooks are not good for this purpose imo, and you have to remove the split ring to get the hooks oriented right.

I’ve been swapping out trebles for trout with Gamakatsu Siwash single hooks. Doesn’t require a split ring, and they hold up well dragging them over river rocks. Just remember to size up a bit from the trebles, so you’re not drastically reducing your hookup ratio.
