swivels hooks

[jim55]

Depends what yer fishing for mate but in general 2/0 or 3/0 this time of year.

As said above depends on what you're fishing for but also what bait you're using and where you're fishing. You can get away with smaller hooks (even down to about a size 2) when fishing beaches and using worms but when using crab or other bulky baits or when fishing where you will have to pull a decent fish up a height then 2/0 to 4/0 might be best. Think of the size of the fish's mouth. Flatties and smaller fish will need smaller hooks whereas codling, coalies etc a bigger hook will still catch. Hope this helps a little?

yep better off saying what kind of fishing your going to be doing

also for swivels do you mean sizes for both the top of the trace and ones for the snood

trace something like the size 3 https://www.veals.co.uk/acatalog/vmo-crane-swivels-643.html

snood something like this in 45lb is ideal https://www.veals.co.uk/acatalog/vmo-diamond-round-swivels-780.html
