  • We've been asked so many times about which size hook link you should be using when, so we sat down to go through the options...

    Wouldn't you think the market could capitalise on the shorter hooklengths, we can easily buy the 4" lengths but they're almost made for the method feeder.

    While I think these guys are great and so knowledgeable, I will stick to 3 lengths for convenience. I use 4 and 6 inch for the shorter lengths. I did use 15 inches for many uses, but to be honest I think tying metre lengths onto those foam spools and then cutting down as needed makes more sense as I fish a range of different waters and methods.
    I do understand though that I’m a pleasure angler and these guys are at the top of their game match anglers. Great to watch anglers that have such in-depth of knowledge talking tactics. When I was a kid, we had the odd book or the top anglers of the day doing the angling club chat circuits.

    Would i be right in saying you would use micro bait bands for 4mm pellet fishing and a standard bait band for 6mm/8mm deck fishing or muggin carp ?

    • @CB-xr1eg
      @CB-xr1eg Před 4 lety

      I use a micro band on pellets up to 6mm, 8mm pellets I use a standard size band.

  • @richardbarrett7544

    Guys what about big fish in the edge? A big double, would it not need a longer hook link for its body size, like 8'' maybe? Or would you still keep it at 3'' please?

    • @WinningWays
      @WinningWays  Před 4 lety +1

      It’s based on the depth you are fishing, so shallow water, such as edges and mud line you’ll want shorter hooklengths even for bigger fish 👍🏻

    Fingers crossed you guys still see this I know its later on... On thumb nail Jamie's HLR box showed the 2inch hook lengths stored between the 4 inch and 6 inch pegs. For the HLR matrix box don't these slope inwards? how did he stop the hooks sliding off? Hope this makes sense XD

    • @briannorton2676
      @briannorton2676 Před 4 lety

      Fishing with Hooks if you get the cheaper membership there are only two live matches at the mo but worth a watch and the live Q.As but you can cancel any time. If you get the more expensive membership there are all the videos that are on Vimeo so a lot to go at and can cancel any time I am happy at the mo but choice is yours is yours if I find I’m not getting enough I will just cancel.

    • @andymcmillan9260
      @andymcmillan9260 Před 3 lety

      That's easy. It's 2-4 inches. Anything bigger and that's 4+ inches your hook is away from the bait if it's displaced. I tend to use 4 inches as they aren't as fiddly to tie. Work fine for me.

  • @apassionfortangling3671

    We all have our own ideas.
    A 2" hooklength puts the loop to loop and all them knots and tag ends too close to the bait, might as well use a 15lb hooklength.
    Expander pellets, corn and other heavy baits are heavy enough to register a bite.
    Small baits on small hooks, just put a stot or a cube on the hooklength, they won't damage the line. 🥴

    • @Northstar-Media
      @Northstar-Media Před 3 měsíci

      Yes , this is my thinking you would get better presentation fishing straight through with no hook length as long as you're not using to thick a line. & you won't have the loops causing drag through the water. 2" seems too small

  • @Northstar-Media
    @Northstar-Media Před 3 měsíci

    Than a two inch hook length would you not get better presentation, fishing your main line straight through to the hook as long as you're line isnt to thick

      @@scottessery100 Nothing wrong with fishing straight through, but if you use a slightly lower diameter hooklength it will break easier if you get snagged or snapped by a big fish.

      For the average pleasure angler it doesn't have to be but for these match guys it's all about percentages and being 110% efficient, and with that it can become technical but extremely deadly, anything they can employ to give them the edge they will and these match guys are at the top of their game with many hours experience behind them earning big money cheques! but a lot of things can be learned from these guys and applied your pleasure angling.
