Hi - I face the risk of exposing my naivete by asking this question and to be honest that's really all I am - just a novice.
Last year I won a whole bunch of hooks as a result of a letter to an angling magazine. The hooks that I received were, if I can put it this way 'micro hooks' (miniature) I have been out of fishing for some years due to a medical condition so I was quite amazed to see how small the hooks are. To add to my awe I then discovered with the use of a magnifying glass that there were no eyes in the hooks. All that there is a flattened end where the eye would normally be.
How on earth do you attach a fishing line to such a tiny hook?
Can someone give me an idea of hook sizes particularly in relationship to my question?
