Setup, Compatibility & Care

  1. Knot Selection: Use appropriate knots like the improved clinch knot or the Palomar knot to attach the hook securely to your leader.

  4. Storage: Store hooks in a dry place to prevent rust.
  5. Inspection: Regularly inspect hooks for sharpness and damage. Replace hooks if they are bent or corroded.
