Thank you, yeah I know exactly what you're saying. Actually I have it weighted so the hook tip will point up. It's just upside down in the photo. Sorry about that!

No, they are tied on an "Fish Skullz" articulated shank. But then I cut the hook "loop" they have manufactured at the back. Traditionally squidro are tied on traditional salmon hooks with dumbell eyes, but I personally prefer the shanks.
