Sickle or Regular Hooks?

I prefer sickles when I'm shooting docks or casting versus fishing around brush. When I'm fishing around brush, I go with light wire so I can straighten them out instead of constantly breaking off.

Sickle all the way

Sickle for me

Let's be honest, though....that's not a real high bar!!

WE will see if you to goobers can hurdle that bar while waiting in line for fried fish at camp. nonono

You guys are braver than me! I wouldn't want to get sideways of that big son of a gun!!! Oh, sickles for me 99 % of the time

I just use old bobby pins, give the fish a chance.

Just pull them straight out of your hair, correct?

Hey Bill, no need to worry if Hogster denies you at the fry. Ya'll should eat pretty good off of Joe's catch alone, found a helpful book to check out. Tight limbs all!Attachment 328295
