Royal Hooks ROYAL Mayhem Flipping Hooks | Heavy Cover Texas Rig & Punch Rig | 3/0, 4/0 & 5/0 | 6-Pack

Flipping Hook. Heavy Cover Texas Rig & Punch Rig. 3/0 | 4/0 | 5/0. 6 Per Pack.

The Royal Hooks ROYAL Mayhem Flipping Hook is purpose-built for heavy cover bass fishing — flipping docks, pitching grass mats, punching through vegetation, and working laydowns and timber where you need a hook with the backbone to drive home a hookset through heavy cover and hold a big bass long enough to get them to the boat. The Mayhem name reflects what this hook is designed for: the short, violent fight of a big bass in heavy cover where the hook has to stay buried and the wire has to stay straight. Available in 3/0, 4/0, and 5/0 — the standard flipping hook size range for soft plastic creature baits, craws, and big worms on a Texas rig or punch rig. 6 per pack.

Why Flipping Hooks Are Different

A flipping hook is a specialized hook designed for the specific demands of heavy cover bass fishing. Where a standard worm hook or drop shot hook is built for finesse and light wire for better action from the bait, a flipping hook uses heavier wire and a wider gap geometry optimized for two things: pulling the hook point clear of the bait’s plastic body on the hookset (the wide gap allows the point to travel outward and clear the bait before driving into the fish), and holding the hook set under the sustained, hard-pulling pressure of a big bass running for deeper cover. The Mayhem is designed to handle both.

Key Features

• Heavy Cover Geometry — hook gap and point angle optimized for Texas rig and punch rig presentations in thick vegetation, mats, dock wood, and brush; the gap provides clearance for the hook point to swing out and set through the plastic bait body on the hookset without the plastic collapsing inward and blocking the point
• 3/0 | 4/0 | 5/0 Size Range — 3/0 for medium creature baits and 4–5" craws; 4/0 for large creature baits and 5–6" craws; 5/0 for big craws, large flipping critters, and punching baits in heavy mats where the larger hook gap provides better clearance through thick plastic; the full flipping hook size range in one product
• Royal Hooks Construction — high-grade carbon steel with Royal Hooks’ proprietary alloy blend for the strength and flexibility to handle big bass in heavy cover; chemically sharpened point for clean, fast penetration on the hookset; heat treated for long-term strength and resistance to bending under sustained fish pressure

Best Applications

• Texas Rig in Heavy Cover — pitch or flip a Texas-rigged craw, creature bait, or big worm into docks, laydowns, grass pockets, and wood cover; the Mayhem’s wide gap and heavy wire drives home the hookset through the plastic and holds on the fight out of cover
• Punch Rig Through Vegetation Mats — rig a heavy tungsten weight above the Mayhem on a punch rig for penetrating thick surface mats; the heavy wire hook holds up to the tungsten weight’s impact on the mat and the force of punching through thick vegetation on the drop
• Flipping Jig Trailer Hook — use as a stinger or trailer hook on a flipping jig to increase hookup percentage on short strikes in heavy cover where fish clip the trailer bait without fully committing to the jig head
