Few Tips for Surf-casting fishing gear

Few Tips for fishing gear that save money and catch fish!

One of the best fishing gear tips for saving you money is to buy small items of fishing gear hooks, pivots, snaps, loose beads etc, and only take what you need on your fishing trips. Buying them in packages of 15, 20, 25, 50 …. Or even 1000 are much cheaper than buying these items in packages of 5 or 10.

The hook points soon become blunt, but the smaller ones especially if you bought them loose are cheap enough to get rid of after each trip and to use the fees on your next fishing session.

The larger hooks, say up the size 3/0, can be sharpened if you have the right tools and know what you are doing, but it's all easy to increase the angle of the hook point that will blunt it even more.

The sharpening test is to drag the point of the hook slightly onto your thumbnail. If she tends to dig, leaving a white scratch, she's strong. If not, either sharpen it or tray.

keep hooks  sharp :

To do what we expect from them, all the hooks must be very sharp. And this applies not only to your bait hooks but those attached to your lures too. Check the point before each use and touch it with a hook file if necessary.

The technique is to caress the file to the elbow of the hook, not to the point. Use the file on both apartments to make sure that not only the point is sharp, but also that the apartments converge in a razor edge.

After a few shots, try the miniature test. If your technique is correct, it will soon be scratching!

The ins and outs of hooks:

One of the smallest, but most important elements of your terminal tackle, hooks have been in a constant state of development since the animal os versions of the stone age.

They have made a long way since then, of course; there is now a crochet design for every aspect of saltwater fishing, fine wire hooks for delicate baits, large aperture hooks for chunky baits, through forged hooks for a big game fishing and crochet unlikely circle in search of capture and release.

Then there are single hooks, double hooks, and treble hooks and staggered rod hooks. So we are spoiled for choice, but before we can make that choice, we need to understand their individual characteristics.

The anatomy of a fish hook:

So without further delay, let's get to the point starting with a glance at the anatomy of a typical crochet.

A regular the ‘j’ designed shown here, identifying the various elements of the design. Hooks for specific applications may seem rather different.

For example, hooks for jelly baits hooks have a crank rod, and the circle hooks "C"  hooks have an inward-looking point that would seem incapable of catching anything.

The stem:

Three choices here short, medium and long tail fishing hooks. Your choice of stem length should be made to suit the bait you are going to put on it. The chunky baits like the crab peeler and the mussel on the short tail hooks, and the worm, Razorfish, and sandeel on long tail hooks for example.

The eye:

On smaller crochet sizes, the crochet eyes are formed by folding the round wire in a circle an open eye. The larger hooks, designed for maximum force, will have the end of the eye brazed to the stem, forming a closed eye.

The eye will either be in line with the stem a straight eye or bent to form either a glance turned down or turned up.

There are different knots to attach your line to each of these hook eye configuration stakes a look at them to attach fishing hooks.

The point:

Some hooks have an offset, or inverted point, which is supposed to improve their penetration capabilities. These are fine for the bait, but are not suitable for lures, as the twist in the hook can cause the lure to turn or operate offline. The point itself will be either conical like a brooch, or sharp.

For offshore lures, you won't go very badly using mustards southern & tuna or sea demon models. These have knife-edge points, both sides of the earth which can be easily sharpened with a whetstone or a backrest. The inner surface of the beard is flat, making it difficult for a big fish to throw the hook.

The barb:

It serves two purposes. To stop the bait falling from the hook and to prevent the fish from shaking freely.

On the other hand, some hooks have two or three other beards on the stem and are called bait hooks.

They are not quite successful as they will disembowel worm baits, and often allow the bait to ratchet their way up to the stem leaving the hook point exposed. If a fish catches the bait then it will miss the point completely.

Rather than using one of these for long baits like sea worms and toss that would otherwise bouquet on a single crochet, use the penne platform with two hooks.

Barbed fish hooks:

Hooks without barb have not taken for saltwater fishing as they have for freshwater fishing, but this may change.

It was that almost everything we caught was meant for the pan or the cats all the damage caused by the hook wasn't much of a problem. But these days, with conservation a very real concern for most of us, catch and release quickly becomes the norm.

But there is a time when you will really want that you had been using a no beard hook and that's when you managed to get a builtin finger or some other sensitive body part.

There are two ways to take it out neither of which will encourage you to do it again.

Fishing hook sizes:

The smallest hook you are likely to use for saltwater fishing would be a size 12 which is the size of the nail on your little finger, and it would be for fishing the port mule with a pinch of bread flake. As the hooks expand, the numbers are smaller and only the numbers are used.

Size 1 is still a small crochet by sea fishing standards suitable only for smaller flatfish and others.

The following size is a:

1/0	2/0	3/0	4/0	5/0	6/0	7/0	8/0	9/0	10/0
11/0	12/0	13/0	14/0	15/0	16/0	17/0	18/0	19/0	20/0

Despite this explanation and details info about types of fishing hooks, There are so many different types of treble hooks fish, double hooks, single hooks, shorttail hooks, long shank hooks, wide nozzle hooks, shift rod hooks etc, that they deserve a page of their own.
