Benefits of using assist hooks on your topwater lures:
Assist hooks offer increased freedom of movement for the hook vs trebles and in-line singles. This can allow a lure to swim more naturally through the water. With the hook mounted to flexible assist cord and a solid ring, it is much harder for the fish to twist and lever the hook against the lure. This greatly reduces the chance of opening up a split ring mid-fight, or the fish using the lure as leverage to pull the hook.
