  Whats doing the biz? I usually use 10’s/12’s/14’s B911’s for fish up to 4lb or 5lb. What other patterns are good?

  For paste and cat meat I use Maver MT4’s. It is an eyed hook but I tie it like a spade end.
  Never let me down yet.

  The two patterns I use and have complete confidence in at this time of year are GURU MWG’s in 10 and 12 sizes and Mustad Carp Paste Barbless hooks sizes 10-16. These are oversized and are superb for big fish, I gently angle the gate of the gape and tie them knotless knot to GURU N-GUAGE rig line 0.17-0.22.

  When using eyed hooks for Paste fishing what is the view on the most reliable knots?

  Tubertini 175s. There in sizes 1-6. Think your looking at the 3s, 4s and 5s to match the hook sizes you stated. Check them out before you waist your money on other types of hooks.

  gamakatsu g hard,these are the sharpest barbless hook in the world.
  any hook thats sharp enough to cut into glass is good enough for me.
  only trouble is they’re Â£10 for 10~think
  or you could try korda curve shank if your on a budget.

  Postie Al. I tie eyed hooks the same as I would a spade end but leave a slightly longer tag of line for the paste to grip on to.

  I’ve never had any troubles with my trusty B911’s. I use them for 99% of my match carp fishing

  The weight of the hook could make a difference but i think it depends on the venue, certainly where i fish, i cant say it makes any difference. I have used a couple of different patters and sizes and the carp just find paste irresistible. Its a big visual and more importantly easily digestible bait and they just love it.
