I am experimenting this year with down-eye and straight-eye hooks with some buggers.
I tie them with the weight just on top of the hook shank so that they 'flip over' when they sink and then again when I strip a bit. They seem to reflect more sunlight when they flip with the flash in the tail and body. The bass seem to hit them a bit harder when they are doing that.
I noticed that the straight eye hooks do not flip over as readily when I do this however, so I am going to see if it seems to make a difference this year.
Just my post giving more info than you ever wanted to know.
Oh, and I prefer the down-eye for almost everything but poppers and scuds.
