What hook sizes on your tip ups with shiners/minnows?
Coosangler:
I instantly felt better about my fishing abilities..
I run a single hook with all bait
Regs, but it makes sense
FM67:
8s. You can catch a really big fish on a pretty small hook. You don’t need more and the bait will swim more natural imo wearing a smaller hook
Marauder2008:
Size 6 or 8 gold trebels on my tip up lines. Normally use medium or large golden shiners.
Or I'll sometimes dead stick for larger pike, but still the size 6 or 8 trebel.
For some reason, I don't get as many bites with the red hooks
DowneastPescador:
I never use trebles, depends on bait size. Usually using 8s and 10s. Sometime a 4 with big baits for pike and togue. Gama bait holder hooks.
Marauder2008:
I know one other guy who doesn't use trebels, he still catches fish. A hook is a hook. I just use what works for me
