Slow Death hooks are the key to the "Slow Death" rig developed in South Dakota. Basically a half crawler is threaded on a Slow Death hook and trolled slowly behind a bottom bouncer. The bend in the hook causes the bait to rotate in large circles behind the bouncer. Used this rig for years, before the Slow Death hook came out we used Tru Turn plastic worm hooks- almost the same thing. Works awesome on finicky walleyes.
