Hook types
Since this newsgroup seems dead (unless my server is missing a LOT of
messages) I realize it's mostly a bass list as well. BUT I'm betting
that most folks fish for more than just bass.
How about a discussion on hook types and sizes used for various fish.
For instance when would you prefer a circle type hook for fishing and
when you would like an octopus or aberdeen or whatever.
Bait holder?
Sizes you prefer and what do you use them for. Yes I already know that
using a size 20 for lunker bass isn't going to work well, Or using a 5.0
for brook trout isn't a good idea...
Do you pre-snell or just tie on as needed.
Anyone use a specific rig most of the time, like a Texas rigged worm or
a Carolina or some other "lucky" tie.
For myself I have bare hooks in the box for just about anything, plus
snell holders with hooks from #6 up though #3.0 with maybe 5 of each
size all ready to go, but they are just snelled to the line no upper
loop in case I want to drop a weight or two or maybe a few beads or a
spinner.
