. . . I wanted to try Pike on a fly I used a short shank stainless
steel salt water hook with a wide gap for the main hook. I used 30 lb

test
mono doubled to place a stinger hook with the point facing upward . . .

I caught several pike with this fly which surprisingly turned over well on

a
four lb tippet. All the pike were caught as they turned with the fly

seating
it securely in the corner of the mouth.


What size hooks (for both main and stinger)
do you recommend?
