    One of my favorite hooks are those 6/0-8/0 Gamakatsu Octopus (J hooks). I’ve been using a snell knot when tying up with mono.

    Anyone using hooks with offset eyes and power-pro? Not sure the snell know would work with superbraid lines…of course I could always use a 25# mono leader.

    works fine
    if your worried it will slip you can use a small drop of super glue,
    I use 4/10 fireline for all my crawler rigs for Canada and the river and have never had one slip.

    At one time I snelled my 10/0 gamies with PowerPro.

    Sure is a pretty looking knot too.
