        Has anyone used 22’s or 24’s fine wire on end of
        hair for maggot or caster instead of maggot clip.

          you can only use one hook Andy. (apart from Lancashire)

            Be careful there – you will be using two hooks which may be against rules.

              I have used it in the past, but u need to bend it a bit more so it is not technically a hook anymore.

                use fuse wire, easy to thread on multiple baits too

                    So when is a hook not the actual catching hook!
                    The fine wire if hooked into a decent fish would hopefully straighten out.~think

                          If its for carp fishing, use what the carp boys use, bait ring, it goes on a hair rig and you threat your maggots/caster on…great method

                            You can use two hooks in parts of Yorkshire too, I think Nigel. I definitely recall seeing double-hook rigs in use at Worsborough Reservoir, near Barnsley.

                              Thats Funny Gary, my post has gone missing!

                              I had said, you can only use 1 hook, except in Lancashire.
