Offset hooks: Shank-weighted hooks

The weight is on the shank itself: a moulded bead or bar between the eye and the bend. Where it sits along the shank decides how the bait falls, and it is the weight a bottom blade hangs from.

Weight positionFallUse
Near the eyeNose-down, like a light Texas rigSkipping under docks, getting a fluke down fast, current
Middle of the shankLevel, broadsideWeightless-style sticks and flukes that must fall flat
Near the belly / bendTail-down, the bait backslides under coverDocks, overhangs, laydowns: the bait slides back under
With a bladeLevel, and the blade lifts it on the retrieveSearch baits over grass; EWG only
ItemDetail
Weight0.9–14 g (1/32–1/2 oz); tungsten is smaller for the same weight
GapNarrow, wide or EWG: every gap page has a weighted sub-type
KeeperTexas-style step or TwistLock

Move the weight, not the sinker: a bead near the eye and one near the bend on the same hook size are two different lures.
