Never heard of them. The name sounds really morbid. What are they all about?

Morbid or not, I may have to try them. I'll bet they work well for trout and bass as well.

I wonder if trout or salmon would go crazy over that action? Hearing might look pretty tasty? Tell me what you guys think!

I don't think the hook would impart any more action on herring. The reason why it works so well for worms is that the worm is threaded over the hook, and that makes the worm do the roll. I don't think you could rig a herring to do that with those hooks...Best to just stick with a cut plug....
