Falling more and more in love with Drennan's Specialist Wide Gape for most of my big fish fishing. When targetting the smaller species I tend to opt for the Kammasan ready tied ones (coz I is a lazy sod).

Pretty much totally Drennan up to a size 10, Wide Gape Match, Specimen Plus, Barbel Specialist, Super Spade. Above that T6 Raptors. I do like the Guru QM1s for grayling fishing though.

I ten to fish barbed hooks a;though I'm happy to fish barbless where the rules dictate them

Ones with a point on one end and a eye on the other and iM pretty sure they are hooked shaped though sometimes I have to question that. :Confused:

Drennan - in various types for most of my bigger species fishing - ie sizes 10 to 6 tied directly to lines of 5lbs upwards.
I especially like the Drennan wide gape micro-barbed - excellent for my style of carp fishing - they hold as well as barbed, but unhook almost as easily as as barbless.
For smaller species I use the ready-tied hooks to nylon (sizes 10 down to size 18) with braking strains from 6lb down to 2lb.
With regard to those it tends to be whatever I have in my tackle box - again some Drennan as welll as other makes and still actually have and use some Pegley Davies ones I bought back in the late 70's.

For this seasons carp fishing I am going to try the Nash Fang Uni hooks for surface fishing and Fang Twister hooks for bottom fishing, both types in various sizes.

I know they are a lot more expensive but they are also supposed to be a lot sharper than most other hooks. I will see if they make any difference to my carp fishing this year.
