pakula hook rigging question

[scottclay]

Hi Peter,

I have tons of your lures and teasers; I caught two nice blue marlin last week on them, one on the animal and one on the sprocket. I saw your post on this site about hook and hook placement for better hook up ratios. I was wondering if you would share what your thoughts are on this subject. I love your products and they are always in the spread!

Thank you

Hi Scott,

Thanks for the question, as I'm on travelling until Tuesday I won't be able to get to the images on my main computer and post the answer to the thread until till then.

I hope you find the answer worth waiting for.

Glad you like the lures!

Sorry for the delay in responding to the post. I thought about how to best go about this and decided that a series of articles would be the best way to cover it as the answers are just too long to put in a forum.

I hope that's ok with the mods.

It's been a long time since I'd written any articles so I'm sorry if it isn't up to scratch.

At last I've started the Advanced Series. I'll try and get one out every 8 weeks or so:

Here's the first:
