coloured hooks ?

[Fishing Forum Admin]

Coloured hooks catch anglers not fish

Its the bait the makes the differance - but I think I have three diff... colours in the box

[Norfolkboy]

i use whatever!!

use black and silver for sea fishing, catch enough fish

use silver, black for coarse fishing, catch plenty

[Ben]

i use whatever they have in the shop for sea and i have silver for corse just cause the black 1s were more expencive i think

Cheers mate! i'll have to keep my eyes open in the shop to see if i can find them! worth a go i reacon! lol like people keep saying though it probably dont make any diference but i like to think so!!

its all in the mind, i recon if you think you are gonna catch then you stand more chance of catching, mainly cause you will prob pay more attention and put more effort in but o well
positive thinking and all that crap

the mullet fishermen in portsmouth harbour use gold coloured freshwater hooks and do well

[Ben]

some people rap the hook in the bread so it cant be seen at all when fishing for mullet

Chaps whats the odds, black,green,red or sky blue pink, if you catch FISH, keep using
your hooks, but always take on new idears
