Favorite Hook?

[SteveH2112]

When chunking or Live Baiting giants what is you're favorite hook? Mustad 7698? Gamakatsu Live Bait? Owner Mutu? Gamakatsu Grouper?

For me small baits Gamakatsu 10/0 and bigger baits 12/0 (prefer the 12/0 if possible)

Livelining Bluefish: 11/0 Owner Offset Circle
Livelining Bluefish on a kite: 12/0 Owner Offset Circle
Chunking: G. 10/0

...but the bigger question is the Fl. Carbon leader..... I always go high @ 200. If a smaller fish doesn't hit cause they are line shy, I'm okay with it. When that 700 hits, I want to be ready..

That's a good point BMCL with the leaders. I would much rather hook up on a heavier leader, but if I can't get one to eat I'm willing to take a chance of losing a fish instead of not hooking up at all.
