Hooking a cricket

OOOPPPPSSSSS guess who wasnt payin attention

I went out to the pond and experimented. I hooked the cricket in two different ways. One way bringing the hook down behind the head and then back up through the body. The other way was reversed. Going down through the body and back up behind the head.
Both ways caught fish at about the same rate. I found no difference in the two. What this tells me is that how you hook a cricket is just a personal preference. The fish involved in my test didn't really care how it was hooked. They just wanted to eat.

stick it up the rear from the top of the cricket and up his back and let the collar cover the point of the hook. works everytime.

they make cricket hooks and you just slide it under the collar so the cricket stays alive
