Best hooks for tiger nuts?

[rusty1664]

Hello everyone - just started on a water that's been hammered by boilies so going to try and be different - what hook patterns do people recommend for tiger nuts - was going to try a drop off inline lead with a coated braid and fish over hemp & corn. Thanks!

Mugga's.

 

Don't be afraid to just use a dozen whole and chopped tigers. If they are in the right place the carp will find 'em.

A tiger nut can be used with almost any hook pattern. I tend to use ESP Big T's or Nash fang twisters for bottom baits. I sometimes use ESP Curv Shanx and Fang X's as well.

 

Try any hook with a wide gape and you can't go too far wrong.

Thanks - I usually use ESP Big T's for boilie rigs but there is a barbless rule - not a fan of crimping barbs - may go for the Nash option.
