What's your favourite hook on the multi rig for pop ups ? Like the look of the krank choddy has anyone used these on their multis and had good results ? Cheers

Don't like chod hooks myself, always found the hook holds are way better on a straight or even better inturned eye. Nash fang twister are my go to hook for the multi

I use esp stuff riggers (size 7) and also a flexi bore ring for attatching the bait . Seems to work well

I like the fox stiff rig straight in a 5 or 6. The Krank choddy is a weak hook in my opinion, only hook I've ever had snap in two.

Yes i like the krank choddy for multi rigs i use size 6 in uk which ive used in and around moderate weed with no probs and 4's in france with no issues.

I wouldn't use them for heavy snag fishing or hit and hold as there are stronger hooks about

Don't think the krank choddy hooks are the one then as the lake I fish is quite snaggy, like the idea of the inturned eye to create a more aggressive angle, I've got some fang twisters and some atomic sabre hooks in my bits box so il tie on up with them and see what they are like

Noticed that Julian Cundiff uses curve shank hooks on one of his multi rig set ups, anybody used curves on theirs ? Like the look of it, sits really aggressively

Drennan continental for me, rarely lose a fish these days. They are sharp and sharpen easily also.

And I use the same for a stiff link bottom rig so 90% of my fishing is this with hook

I use a curve for the multi and love how it sits. I get cracking hook holds with it and it never looks like it's coming out.

I have settled on the Eagle Claw Trokar hooks, i found they are one of the sharpest hooks straight out of the packet and you can use them more than once. Hand sharpened hooks are sharper but are really only good for one fish.
