Re: Giant Herring Flies
Hook is a 1/0 I think, Mustad Signature all-round o'shaunessy, which has a medium long shank. Clould the them on Big Game Lights, would be good but not as much bite protection, or on a true long shank hook. The theory is that GH's target the eye of the baitfish, which is just above the hook point, don't know how true this is but they work great, cast very easily and "slide" through the water easily, perfect for a quick retrieve hand over hand, and they obviously have advantages for chasing River Tailor too.
