I saw a video from a dude that swears by adding hair to hard bait hooks. He is all about red drum fishing and contends the hair let's the scent he uses adhere better and longer. I just got a couple of Johnson silver minnow and thought I'd try it but wanted to check here first. Anyone?
Thanks

Never used hair on spoons, but have added grubs.

some spoons have hair. Makes sense to me that it would add/change the action and give scent something to hang on to.

Yea I was wondering about the action. The one I want to try is 1/8 oz so there is really not enough hook shank to tie hair on so I bagged the idea. I don't want to add a trailer hook-maybe on a 1/2oz it could be ok. I decided to experiment and add a spinner about 1" ahead of the spoon. Mainly because my outdoor plans got rained out. The 1/8oz were recommended for super skinny water so I bought 4. The hooks are so small. I hope they hold up to a fish. Not that I know what catching a fish feels like lately
Thanks
