The Owner DownShot offset hook has the unique design of an eye that is in the down position and a 90-degree shoulder bend, allowing this hook to float perfectly horizontal. When using ballast where your line is going to be fished up and down, this hook will stay horizontal, giving the bait a unique movement. The best way to tie this hook is to use a Palomar knot and pull the tag end of the line up, over and through the eye once more before adding the selected weight. Attach your soft plastic bait to the Cutting Point hook, and the suspended action will entice the fish to strike!
