Best choice for varying types of fishing
I have been using Mustad hooks for as long as I can remember, at this present point I use Mustad hooks for live baiting and large dead baiting.

Read moreap hooks like Jarvis Walker or Tackle World range hooks. The Big Red hooks I use are in the ranges of 4/0 to 8/0 and the larger hooks I use the Hoodlum range, however the Big Red range do most of the work I need them to do, and make best hooks for snelled rigs and sliding hooks useing a silly snell knot or a small lenght of silicone tubing on the top hook allowing it to slide. The smaller hooks in the Big Red range woukd be suitable for bait fishing and a broad range of fish encountered, this hook style is a 'swiss army' style and suitable fir many types of fishing and range of species. My only issue I am finding is price, they are rising consistantly in most shops and these hooks are becoming more costly per rig, price shouldnt be considdered on the working end typically, however this will push some people away and new fishers entering the game. Otherwise than that these are the best hook on the market! sharp point, hold their points well while in the water for a long time, strong shanks do not straighten out. some prices for hook packs encountered are pushing silly...Questions & Answers
