        When pole fishing corn and expanders, what size hooks do you match these baits with. For skimmers and match sized carp.

          Depends on the time of year for me. In the coldest of winter I’ll use a 20, spring and autumn usually 18/16, summer 16/14.

            A size 18 B911 for 4mm pellet and corn.

            You can also get away with an 18 for a 6mm expander but if you were to only use 6mm’s and corn then a 16 is more ideal.
