The hooks are great but the gauge need to be thinner. Also, the ring at the end of the shank need to be smaller as well. If it is left out of a normal sized sinko, then there is a fairly good gap between the sinko and the weight which allows grass to get in there. If you put it inside the worm, it creates a bulge which alters the way the sinko reacts in the water during the retrieval. These problems are compounded if you try to use the hook on a finesse worm or trick tell worm. I did have luck on catching about a 2 lb bass with it though, but the changes would help dramatically.
