Never thrown a magdraft type swimbait before. All I have ever done for swimbaits are smaller finesse baits on a jighead. I got a few areas on my river that I think a 6 inch magdraft freestyle would shine fishing over some shallow grass. I got a few questions on rigging.
1. I am rigging it on a spring lock superline swimbait hook to throw on straight braid, do I need to throw a weighted spring lock hook or is the bait heavy enough already? Fishing depths would be 2-5 feet.
2. What size swimbait hook would be best for the 6 inch magdraft freestyle?
3. Does a hook with a blade attached to it like a flashy swimmer make that much difference?
I know this is a long post but I am pretty new to "big" swimbait fishing. Thanks!
