People like fishing, thinking fishing is simple, hooks is not so important. But in fact, many fishermen doesn’t know how to use it correctly. Therefore, with a good understanding of the structure, quality, and shape of the hook that can be used to select the hook correctly is extremely important.
When choosing a fishhook, in addition to studying the shape of the hook, you must also pay attention to the quality of the steel bar. Too brittle or too soft is not good. A good hook should be tough, sharp and strong. If the hook strip is too thin, it will be easily deformed during use. The thickness of the hook can be judged by intuition and feel. The sharp of the hook is also important. With the sharp hook, when the fish is eating bait, the fisherman only needs to move the pole slightly, and the hook can hook the mouth. Easy break fishing hooks and easy straightens fishing hooks all not good for using. If you find that the hook is deformed, you should discard it.
1.Use the large hooks for big fish and a small hooks for small fish. The size of the hook must match the size of the target fish. Otherwise, the fish will not be able to eat the bait if the hook is too large. It is easy to unhook and run fish when it is small.
2.Use thick hooks for big fish and thin hooks for small fish. If the hook is too thick, it will affect the fish to eat the bait into their mouths; if the hook is too thin, it will be easily straightened when encountering big fish. Therefore, the thickness of the hook should also match the target fish.
3.The wider the hook door of the fishhook, the greater the thickness of the piercing into the fish mouth, and the less likely it is to escape the fish; on the contrary, the narrower the hook door of the fishhook, the thinner the thickness of the piercing into the fish mouth, the easier it is to cause fish to run away . However, the wider the hook door of the fishhook, the higher the fish's vigilance to the fishhook, and the narrower the hook door of the fishhook, the lower the fish's vigilance of the fishing rod. Fishermen must balance the width of the hook gate.
4.Fishhooks are also divided into long-handled fishhooks and short-handled fishhooks. Long-handled fishhooks are mainly designed for some special fish, such as fish with teeth. In order to prevent them from biting off the fishing line with their teeth, It is necessary to use a long-handled fishhook, and then fish that like to swallow deeply, such as rice field eel, yellow catfish, catfish and other fish.
5.Whether the fishhook has barbs. The hook has barbs, which can effectively prevent unhooking and running fish. However, it is very troublesome to use a hook with barbs when unhooking. Generally, when fishing big fish or rare fish in the wild, fishermen like to use barbed hooks.
