I
like to use the Preston Innovation PR 21 Hooks because
they are wide gapped and very Strong. They are
manufactured in sizes 12, 14, 16, 18 and 20 and are similar
to the Tubertini series 808.
These
hooks, which are bronze in colour, are very sharp
and more importantly STAY sharp which means less frequent changes.
The
hook has a fairly long shank upon which I will whip my line seven to eight
turns. I have been using this pattern of hook all summer and to-date it
has not
let me down and never straightened out on me.
During
the summer use the biggest hook the fishery will allow and try using
double meat or corn on these hooks because they are capable of hooking
this
amount comfortably. This in turn may just give you an advantage, in that
if you
strike through one piece you may still have the second piece on your hook
which
means less shipping back and hopefully more fish in the net.
I
cannot recommend these hooks highly enough. I believe they have helped me
to some victories this summer including the Ultimate League Final in June
at
Shakespeare Moorlands Farm.
Try
them yourself you never know they just may help you to your next victory.
