I use owner stinger hooks only, they are flat out some of the sharpest hooks I have ever ran across for top water baits, as for feathers I let the fish tell me what they want I usally have two of every topwater bait, one with feather and one with out, I also tie most of my own feathers, ( you can get better quality, if you search around a little,
Hope this helps

George I forgot to tell you, Red hooks have a defanet use, but always always put them on the frount of the bait, I never place them on the back. To me red hooks show a injured baitfish and injured baitfish usually bleed from the Gill area so I stick with the frount hook only.

Hope this helps
