What kind of hook is the best for fishing eel?

First, you need to make an eel hook. The equipment used is steel wire with a diameter of about 2.0mm, length of 40 cm, bamboo length of 40 cm, 0.6PE wire, vise and other tools. Steel wire is very important. Too thin steel wire with poor waist strength is not very suitable. Strength is the first choice. It is better to use steel wire with sufficient toughness but insufficient waist strength than steel wire with sufficient strength. The reason will be explained in the fishing method.

1. At the joint between the steel wire and the bamboo handle, the front of the bamboo handle should be cut as close as possible to the thickness of the steel wire, so that it can be integrated. The slender bamboo is slightly helpful for capturing signals.

2. The combined part is about 10 ~ 15cm. Note that the end of the steel wire is bent at a right angle of180 with the direction of the front hook tip, and embedded in the bamboo body for 5MM, which is helpful to provide higher tension.

Wrap the steel wire and bamboo tightly with 0.6#PE.
