Hi everyone,

which hooklink material and which hook manufacturer or pattern do you find yourself coming back to time and time again. Personally I always use Rigmarole hooks and Kryston snakebite or super mantis.

Seems like most people don't bother with mono these days, so that's something I often use, and tbh I seem to catch as many as most others on the same waters. I also like Kryston Mantis for combi rigs. Hooks I use are usually ESP Raptors or Korda Wide Gapes, except when using smaller hooks for surface fishing. Then it's Drennan Super Specialists for me.

Be careful with that combo Craig, inturned eyed hooks, knotless knot and flouro carbon aint good bedfellows, from bitter experience :oops:
