RIJIMMY, I have no idea how that set up worked. Maybe it was like a squid jig?? The "hook" would be sharp enough and strong enough for the fish to bite, but with no curve or barb, the upward motion keeps it planted in the fish's mouth until it slackens up once its hoisted onto the deck... just a guess. Anybody actually know?

The charm of fishing is that it is the pursuit of what is elusive but attainable, a perpetual series of occasions for hope. ~John Buchan
