Admin-

GREAT STUFF!....that method does appear easier than a J-hook rig and the statement about the hoo NOT washing out as much due to no hole in thebelly makes a LOT of sense.

Also, I LOVE the intro and exit music/scheme to the vid.....

SFC....it just doesn't get any better!!

great video! What brand and size circle hook is preferred for med ballyhoo? Thanks

capt. woodward · 02-23-2007, 03:31 PM

Most use the Eagle Claw, but I like the Mustad - less point breakage.

Mustad has two models, one heavier than the other. The #39948D in 8/0 is fine for smaller billfish (sails, whites, spear). The #39960D was designed for BIG marlin, size 14-20/0.

Bay Fishin,
try turning up the sound thing on the right hand side of the video player. if that doesnt work then your speakers are on the fritz. are you on a laptop?
