The Original Sabertooth Fishing Hooks - Made in Austin, Texas With other fishing hooks you catch only some of the fish that bite your live shrimp because fish are oftentimes able to steal your live shrimp off the other fishing hooks and leave your hook lieing empty in the water. Fish absolutely cannot steal your live monnow off these sabertooth bait holder fishing hooks and every time a fish takes one of these sabertooth fishing hooks baited with a live minnow into its mouth, the sabertooth baitholder fishing hook that is firmly attached to your live minnow goes with it. While fishing with other fishing hooks, however, fish are oftentimes able to steal your live minnow off of your baitholder fishing hooks and leave your fishing hook lieing empty in the water. www.fishinghook.com   (1410 words)

Information on fishing hooks, types and sizes Hooks marked '2x strong' or '2x' are made from wired twice as thick as the standard hook, a 3x hook is 3 times thicker than the standard hook. A wide gape hook is one where the gape, (the gap between the hook point and hook shaft) is wider than the standard hook. Once the hook is formed, the points are treated with a chemical and then introduced to a laser beam, or other control source, which wears away the metal leaving a very sharp point. www.bishfish.co.nz /articles/general/sharpend.htm   (1729 words)

Snell Knot-fishing hook knot tying Paul's Fishing Kites have conducted extensive research on fish hook types, fishing hook sizes, and measured the effects of using a snell knot to attach the fish hook to the line versus tying fishing hooks in the New Zealand snapper fishery. The method of tying fishing hooks was also investigated and a difference in catch rate between tying a circle hook versus snelling a circle hook was determined to be around 20% in favor of the snell knot. The resulting attachment is one of the strongest fishing knots around, whereas tying to the eye of the hook weakens the trace by as much as 40% (depending on the knot used and the skill of the fisherman tying the knot). www.fishingkites.co.nz /fishingknots/snell_fishing_knots.html   (752 words)

With the straight shanked autoline hooks, over 87 percent of the fish were hooked in the left or right jaw with a further 10 percent of the halibut hooked in the eye region. IPHC regulations define a "automated hook stripper" (commonly known as a crucifier) as a device through which the groundline can be passed during gear retrieval which allows the groundline and hooks to pass freely, but does not allow fish to pass, thereby removing fish from the hooks. www.iphc.washington.edu /staff/stevek/basic2.htm   (3296 words)

Fishing Hook Buyer's Guide They are often used for finesse fishing when hook size and weight are critical to a proper presentation, like dry flies or live bait fishing with a leech. When an angler detects a bite, a slow steady pull of the line is all that's needed to move the hook to the side or top of the fish's mouth to prevent gut hooking. Octopus hooks are often used for bait fishing when minimal hook weight and size is essential for a natural presentation. www.basspro.com /webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/CFPage?storeId=10151&catalogId=10001&langId=-1&mode=article&objectID=31266   (1179 words)

Tackle-Free Fishing The hands-down majority of fish caught in North America are taken on some combination of rods and reels, but anglers also have the option of fishing with a number of “no-tackle” methods that can be as productive as casting or trolling. After the yo-yo is tied to a limb, the hook is baited and enough line is pulled off the reel to lower the bait two or three feet beneath the surface. As is the case with limblines, yo-yos can be rigged with monofilament leaders and smaller hooks to catch bluegills and crappies—but be sure that it is a legal fishing method for those species in the state in which you fish. www.outdoorlife.com /outdoor/fishing/article/0,19912,426198,00.html   (1655 words)

Sport fishing - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Sport fishing is a term (often used interchangeably with Game Fishing) that describes recreational fishing where the primary reward is the challenge of finding and catching the fish rather than the culinary or financial value of the fish's flesh. Sport fishing methods vary according to the area being fished, the species being targeted, the personal strategies of the angler, and the resources available, ranging from the aristocratic art of fly fishing, ostensibly invented in Great Britain, to the high-tech methods used to chase Marlin and tuna. External pressure from conservationists, combined with a genuine concern about fish stocks, have caused many sport fishers to begin releasing their catch alive, sometimes after fitting them with identifying tags and recording their details so as to aid fisheries research (known as tag and release). en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Sport_fishing   (374 words)

Ezknot, and Boomerang fishing Pro It's called drop shotting, the hook is tied with a special knot, and that knot manipulated in a way to make the hook stick out 90 degrees from the fishing line, with a weight tied below the hook, so that you can manipulate your lures better. When you cast to where the fish are, your rig stays there, your hook, and bait stays off the bottom, unlike regular fishing, when the hook is below the weight, so fewer snags, and you float shows the gentlest nibble, you just catch more fish.
