Sickle Hooks?
I bought some #4 aberdeen gold sickle hooks on sale I thought I'd use for fishing minnows. I haven't used them yet. I have noticed that they are stronger than my light wire aberdeens. A negative in brush, but I thought they might work ok under a light at night in open water. Anybody tried them yet?
-
Oh yeah...use them strickly on my jigheads now. They hold minners real well when hooking them through the nose.

You won't lose as many fish with a sickle!
I have straightened Sickle Jigs out in brush also.

I tried Sickle hooks and the ones I had were also made with a thicker wire and didn't straighten out near as easily as the extra light wire Eagle Claws I normally use,they were super sharp and hookups were good with them though.

i am so sold on them i will not even tie a jig on thats not got a sickle hook i will say you will lose more then light wire but hook ups way better on them and since i make my own i have enuff for my next trip anyways
