Well, fishing hooks hook fish, of course. That might sound stupid, but as you will see there are a number of different shaped hooks, and if you intend to release a fish without harming it, you might want to choose what's called a 'circle' hook. But if you're trolling a long piece of squid or a live threadfin sardine or goggle-eye bait for marlin in tropical waters, that same circle hook will slip out of the fish's mouth nine times out of ten exciting strikes.
So a hook is used to catch fish, but if you have no intentions of keeping it at all, pick what we call 'circle' hooks. (More on that in the next section).Do you know the difference between hook sizes? The way hooks are built make one size perfect for one species and completely wrong for another.You can catch big fish with small hooks but it's very hard to catch small fish with big hooks. Fish aren't the smartest of sentient beings that we eat, but they're not completely stupid, either. The more natural a bait appears - natural but slightly injured - the more likely it will become the target of the predators you seek.
But if that bait acts unnaturally (like it would if it was dragging a giant metal hook) it does not look appetizing to the fish.The fishing hook is probably the most well-known piece of terminal fishing tackle, and there are many subtle differences between types of hooks. Hook SizeHooks are classified by 'sizes' - for example, a size 1 hook is larger than a size 7, while a 1/0 is smaller than a 7/0 (pronounced 7-aught). The smallest standard sizes available are 32 and the largest 20/0.The slash symbol ( / ) defines a hook as grouped within the 'aught' measurement system. As defined in aughts, the higher the number, the larger the hook.
A 1/0 hook is bigger than a size 1. They ascend in accordance to their increased size. Therefore, a 6/0 hook is larger than a 2/0, but a plain 6 is smaller than a 2.Hooks are also made from various wire gauges or thickness. They run from very thin wire to thicker gauge wire, for example: fine wire, heavy wire, extra heavy, 2X heavy, 3X heavy, 4X heavy and higher.Hook sizes up and down the scales. Anatomy of a Hook. The bend is the curved part of the hook, and all those fine-sounding hook names, such as Limerick or Sproat, have something to do with the bend. Actually, such hook names have to do with two parts of the bend: the throat and the gap.
Think of the throat as the depth that the hook penetrates. Think of the gap as the width of the hook, from point to shank. A relatively wide gap may be necessary to hold certain bait, to get around the snout of a billed fish, or to dig in beyond the width of a thick jawbone.

A relatively wide gap may be necessary to hold certain bait, to get around the snout of a billed fish, or to dig in beyond the width of a thick jawbone.
GapThe anatomy of the hook is as follows: The point is the sharp end that penetrates the fish's mouth. To achieve the point, the hooks are either mechanically or chemically sharpened. Some hooks are barbless to make hook remova easier and less stressful to the fish. Jutting off the point is the barb, which is a sharp tip that prevents the hook from backing out. The eye connects the hook to the fishing line, which is achieved by using any one of a variety of knots. The shank is the portion of the hook that connects the point and the eye; the gape or gap describes the distance between the shank and the point. Some of these features often describe the type of the hook - for instance, a long shank hook, a wide- gap hook or an offset eye hook.Hooks are named sometimes by their shape, for example, the J-hook.
Sometimes they're named after the person who invented that type of hook such as the O'Shaughnessy hook.:Hooks fall into six major categories:J' hooksCircle HooksTreble hooksWire hooksThick gauge hooksKahle hooksHooks are manufactured from many different metals such as high carbon steel, vanadium and stainless steel. Stainless steel is losing favor due to its negative effects on the environment. J-HooksAre so named due to their appearance which resembles the letter 'J.' They have a straight shank and when the fish bites down upon it, will hook itself somewhere in the mouth.
It is necessary to 'set the hook' (Which is a hard pull or quick jerk of the fishing rod upwards when the angler notices a sensation of a fish taking the hook in its mouth).The J-Hook is different than a circle hook, in the following ways:. It is not shaped like a circle because it's shank and point are not bent in towards the shaft.
