An inline single hook with an inline hook eye is a popular choice for many anglers using lures, as it provides a streamlined and effective way to secure fish. The inline design means that the hook shank and the hook eye align in the same plane, reducing the chance of the hook twisting or turning during retrieval, which can increase the chances of a solid hookset. This type of hook is ideal for lures that are used for trolling, casting, or jigging, as it minimizes line twist and allows for better movement of the lure in the water. The straight design also helps improve the hook's penetration, ensuring a secure hookset with minimal damage to the fish, making it a favorite for catch and release fishing as well.
