"ULTIMATE" Fish Hook

[BigBuck$]

If you were limited to one bait for the rest of your fishing days what would it be??? I would take a 3.00" White Mr. Twister (or Power Bait) with a 3/8 ounce jig (black with yellow eye). I've caught Pike, Walleye, Perch, Whitefish, Lings, & Suckers with these things. Halibut love the 6 - 8" version, this is my pick..... what would you take

[The Great White Hype]

For me it would have to be Williams W60 Electric Blue, has caught many different species, and many trophy fish... Cant go wrong with Williams spoons!

[S.A.S]

Probably a medium sized Red devil.

Len Thompson 5 of Diamonds (red diamonds)

[Dougie55]

I would be torn between a 5 of diamonds, either color, or a Mepps Black Fury.. Have caught fish all over the world with both..

Good to hear, just purchased a couple of those Black Fury Mepps, haven't had a chance to try em yet though. Bought two, black with yellow dots, n black with red dots. Any preference??

C.I.L. Wiggler:

The 40 year old Canadian Wiggler I have. They dont make them with the same action anymore. Cant keep the pike off it.

Mepps XD (Xtra Deep) spinners in brown and rainbow trout colours.....went to bass pro yesterday and saw they were sold out (or maybe they don't make 'em no more)....black furys are also a great choice....love my spinners...

Dark green wolly bugger with a gold bead head.

[827rotax]

Little Cleo. any color, any size

[braxxtonn]

I would have to agree with black jig head and white double tail!!

[Paul C]

The best hook is one that is very, very sharp.

Sorry to steal a thread. But I need help. Getting back into fishing after a long stint away. Can anyone please let me know the easiest ways to remov e the barb from a hook. Seems when I pinch the hook the is still a little of the barb sticking out. Is it that difficult. Wouldn't it just. E easier to sell barbless hooks.

You can use a dremel tool or file to remove that. Myself if pliers dont work I use a needle nose vice grips. At that point I quit worrying about it, probably someday I'll run into some complete tool of an officer who wants to bea dick and I'll get a ticket. Untill then I'll just keep pretending that the rules are enforced by rational people who want to protect the fisheries rather than jerks that enjoy throwing their weight around.

That's what I was about to say, especially given that the OP asked what bait... Perhaps I'm out of touch and the lures suggested above are actually termed bait. I dunno... LOL

I guess they could be considered artificial bait but personally worms have out fished ANY lure i have in my box. A saying I was told when I was a kid was "If it aint broke don't fix it"

[rawhide]

1/4"oz. Panther martin spinners, but has to have the feathers. No feathers, no fish. I have used the small lure with and without feathers on the same day/time on two rods. The feathered one was getting stike after strike. The non-feather spinner got skunked.

Have have caught everything from Perch, whitefish, jacks, walley, grayline and trout.

I also have a dozen of these Feathered Panther Martins when I go out.

[Eddy62]

buzzbombs mainly white and pink..smashing fish all year with them

[858king]

Properly shotted Thill float and earthworm. There's nothing you can't catch with it. Pike through flounder.

[FishingFrenzy]
