[QUOTE="4ked Horn, post: 70543, member: 11"] Sorry no digital camera available at the moment. These links might help. The bait is 6" long whole smelt or herring. Long and thin. The hook we will normaly be using are [url="http://www.mustad.no/products/classic/classic/class_92611.htm"]these in 6/0[/url]. If you click on the hooks a printable page will open that will print the hooks in actual size. The circle hooks I have are [url="http://www.mustad.no/products/premium/ultrapoint/up_39950.htm"]these in 10/0 I believe.[/url] I was given them by the guy that helps me with my boat and he uses them on the coast for something like halibut if I remember right. I'm also concerned about catching the fish in the front of the mouth mouth because it it a retractable sucker tube. I think if the hook didn't set in the cartilage of the mouth it would just tear out. Our hooks have to have the barb removed or bent down. The sturgeon we are likely to catch are from 4 to 9 feet long. The mouth on a 4 footer is as wide as your palm. Tell me more about the florocarbon leader. Will it snell or must it be tied. Is it braided? Will it cut the fishes mouth like spider wire would? [/QUOTE]
