Thanks, Rob. I've always found your product reviews to be extremely helpful.

I've got a quick question for you Cali swimbait experts. Would you recommend using a pair of pliers to increase the gap slightly on the stock hook of baits like the Baitsmith, ABT Wag Tail, etc. To me this seems like it could improve the hook up ratio, but there may be a factor I'm overlooking. Thanks guys!
