If your familiar with putting a guide on a rod you won't have a problem securing a hook to a stick. When finishing a guide, thread is wrapped over a loop, fed through the loop, then pulled. When doing a gaff, double up on braid, #50 +, for the loop. Wrap your hook a tight as possible, then add the loop then continue to wrap firm over the loop 6-8 times, feed, then pull. Use gloves and or vice. I wrap with a thin rope used to tie tautog rigs(can be found at ship supply store), you can use anything like it too....brush some finish on it a few times and your golden.
