Fishing hook size selection

The method of choosing the size of fishing hooks is as follows:

According to the temperature:

We can't judge the size of the fish in the water directly when we are fishing in the natural waters, but in different seasons, due to the changes in the temperature and environment, the fish's life pattern is also different, and we can choose the right hooks according to such characteristics when we are fishing.

1, high temperature

In the high temperature, the fish are more active, whether it is a larger fish or smaller fish, their desire to eat is relatively high, and in such a season fishing, we are squatting on the big fish, naturally need to choose the big hooks, for example, 7-9 hooks can be used to fishing 6-10 pounds of big fish. The most important thing to remember is that you should be able to use the same size hooks as you do for the smaller fish.

2, low temperature

In the relatively low temperature, most of the fish are no longer feeding, this time we tend to crucian carp and other cold-tolerant fish species as the target fish, the size of the hook is the most secure choice, can be used to fish 1 two to 1 catty crucian carp.

Based on the species:

When we go out fishing, even if we are fishing in natural waters, the target species can be differentiated according to the size, and at the same time, in different waters, according to the fishing experience, we can also roughly determine the approximate size of the fish species. Overall, if you want to squat on a species of fish over 5 pounds, then the size of the hook should not be lower than No. 6, and if you are just fishing for a species of fish under 5 pounds, then No. 3-5 hooks are a very good choice.
