Offset hooks: TwistLock hooks

The second way to lock a bait: a keeper at the eye instead of the Z-step. Owner's coil spring gave the kind its name, Gamakatsu calls it Spring Lock, and makers' own keepers (BKK's Permalock pin, weighted or not; Mustad's Grip-Pin) belong here as well. The bait is held by the nose, so it cannot slide down the shank after casts and fish. A barb or ridge on the back of the shank (Ryugi Pierce, Mustad Grip-Pin style keepers welded to the shank) is NOT a TwistLock: that is a Texas hook with a keeper barb. Two pages, by gap.

PageWhat it fits
Narrow-gap TwistLockSlim worms, flukes and small swimbaits held dead straight: strolling and hover minnows too
Wide-gap TwistLockThick baits, soft swimbaits, big sticks; includes the EWG versions
ItemDetail
KeeperCoil spring, screw pin, fixed pin or barb behind the eye
WireHybrid to 3X heavy duty (Owner TwistLock 3X)
Sizes1/0–6/0; 3/0–4/0 for 3–5" (7.5–13 cm) baits, 5/0 for 4–10" (10–25 cm)
WeightedMany carry a head weight (a cone at the keeper) or a shank weight: see weighted offset hooks

Screw or push the keeper in dead centre: a crooked keeper makes the bait roll instead of swim.
