    Default Minnow Help ?


    Have noticed that some say to hook minnows through eyes . I hook them through the lower lip . Is this a ford/Chevy thing or a reason or situation that this matters ?

    Hooked thru the eyes they will not get knocked off as easy.....also when hooked thru the eyes they flutter trying to get straight and that movement attracts fish.
    I have spent most my life fishing........the rest I wasted.

    Best way is where they will stay on good. I always put the hook through the lips. But after having a guy catch more then I did and his was throught the eye's. Well I swapped and still got beat.
