Default Why I hate beaked hooks

Looks like the fish I caught yesterday, using that same dam hook

Because too often, they grab the tiniest bite before the beak leads the
point back out of the skin/meat whatever, and you end up with a very
precariously hooked fish.

Of course this photo could also be used to illustrate why I NEVER use
multiple hooksets. No way you know if the first set it something like

this,
in which case the 2nd set is 99% sure to just rip it free.
