The Hayabusa Power Wacky Heavy Guard FF216 is a reinforced hook equipped with a protective guard for wacky-style black bass fishing near obstacles. It combines the strength of the hook with a point that is less directly exposed as the rig passes through the water. Pack of 5 hooks.
The FF216 addresses two challenges of wacky-style fishing near cover. Its reinforced hook is suitable for more forceful presentations, while the shank is positioned in front of the point to limit contact with obstacles.
The worm remains hooked in the wacky style. The worm must be thick enough to leave sufficient space around the hook so that the material does not obscure the point when setting the hook. The guard provides protection when passing through branches or weed beds, though there is still a risk of snagging in the most overgrown spots.
