What style and size hook do you use for catch and release trout fishing with tip ups using eggs and worms?Thank you,Mike
# 8’s and 10’s for worms and Eggs for me. If they are small trout 12’s and even 14’s can work but 8’s and 10’s are a good all around depending on egg brand. I like the bigger eggs ( Mikes, Atlas )so I use 8’s. 10’s or smaller would work better with Pautzkee. Plus the wider bend in the hook sticks around the bony part of their jaw better on larger fish. If I have real large live bait I’ll even go to a 6 hook. Gamakatsu octo are my favorite hook for egging.
How about the opposite, what do you use on traps for bass pickerel yellows? I have been losing a lot of fish wondering if my hooks are too small?
