Any disadvantages to 90º Jig Hooks in the Surf?

[ironmachin 0]

I have a bunch of the Eagle Claw 635s for pouring jigs. They seem like pretty good hooks so, I thought I could use the same hooks for my surf flies; our surf critters scour the ground so we like them to ride up. Any reason to not use this kind of hook in the surf?

Can't think of any. Fish the same here bottom munchers.

Thanks, man.

 

I just realized I tied the colors upside-down. Whoops.

Just throw a little lime green on the top and off you go! Or any color you like.....or the fish like. I fish jig Clousers all the time and they are great around jettys and the surf. I like it.
