Rapala hooks

[keith reid]

I have some 6" rapala shad raps but want to put some decent hooks on them. What size would be appropriate? (They came with no hooks or adonised hooks as I got them from a sea angler. I intend using them for pike) Any preferred makes?

Keith, the anodised hooks are the original hooks!! For some reason, these lures come with large, big barbed trebles.
I have heard of people replacing them with....it think...5/0 Partridge Grey Shadow outpoint trebles. Also have a look at VMC and Kamasan trebles in that size. They have tiny barbs but are very strong
