cooker1 Posted August 11, 2007 Report Share Posted August 11, 2007 Got me some o that ol snakeskin from the posty yesterday ... not having a lot of luck getting it to fit thro the eyes of the hooks I have twice - few different types (would only go thro a sz6 twice!) ... If you're using snakeskin what eyed hooks are you using or am I missing something? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cooker1 Posted August 11, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 11, 2007 12lb b/s - ESP Raptor G4 sz 6 no prob any smaller no can do. Kamasan same normal or wide .. also a longshank .. cant rememeber what make but havent got any 6s in those .. basically any hook I have at the mo is too small apart from the sz 6s ... Got round it for now using a clinch knot on the hook but not easy Try it again later ... 10 minutes time ... Yid Army! Yid Army! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
