Single Hook Comparison (30 hooks)
January 03, 2014, 05:50:52 PM

This is simple a guide that one can gauge a size comparison off of a particular brand/style of hook that they may be wishing to purchase but are unsure of how big/heavy/small/light the hook may be.

Thanks Shane,

I was indeed wondering about the sizes and weights for a while. Very useful information, especially having the sizes visualized in a picture.

The guys from Gamefishing India also just recently posted a similar info on their blog with some more information on hook weights: http://gamefishingindia.blogspot.de/search?updated-min=2013-01-01T00:00:00%2B05:30&updated-max=2014-01-01T00:00:00%2B05:30&max-results=22

@Admins, I hope it is okay that I post this external link.

Tight lines, Robert

Brilliant Shane, single hooks are the way to go, now if Konishi san can just design a Gamma compatible for singles I will give away all my nasty trebles.

Thanks Shane! I'm a huge fan of single and baker-rigged hooks, so this is really useful.
If it ain't topwater... quite frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn.
