A screw is threaded into the soft lure to hold it firmly in place, allowing you to attach your hook system and weights to it. Your leader is also clipped onto the screw.

You need one when fishing large soft lures where no suitable jig hooks are available, or whenever you are not using a jig hook or offset hook. Screws also let you fix hook systems in place and rig lures easily with treble hooks.

Yes, there are. You will find straight models as well as angled ones. Some come with multiple eyes, some include split rings, swivels and snaps, some have fixed weights and others have interchangeable weights. There are short and long screws as well as large and small ones, so there is always the right option for every situation.

Push it into the centre of the nose of the soft lure and thread it all the way in. You can then attach your hook system to the screw and get fishing.

In normal use, no. The screws sit very deep and firmly inside the lure and hold extremely well.
