Trouble I am finding is that hooks sizing these days is meaningless.
In the old days if I bought say a size 10 I would get a size 10 now a size 10 will any thing from an old size 14 to an old size 6. I bought some so called size 4 trebles but they are nearer to an old size 8. A bit like clothes I can wear anything from a Large to an XXL depending on where I buy it. It now seem the same with hooks.
What happens on those waters where the rules state that you must use a certain size hook.
