Sooo you leave the actual hook bare just sitting there for the fish to see? Can't believe that works but I'll try it.... I put 4 on a hook with a bobber 3 feet up and couldn't get a bite? I was using a #6 hook though and 6lbs liine.

Not really. The 2nd pellet is over the knot, hook eye and part of the hook leaving enough room for a clean hookset. The hooks are SHARP!, you don't really need to set the hook, the HSB do it by themselves. If you drag the hook point over your thumbnail it won't slide, it'll start to dig in. Try that with an eagle claw or mustad and you'll see the difference. There's a reason why the hooks are more expensive.....
