When I’m fishing for ide or I’m bagging I will generally chose a ‘Gama wide gape maggot’ in an 18/20. These hooks do seem slightly large for their size so bear this mind but they are extremely strong, sharp and durable.
Gamma all round are also great hooks and are as they state a very good all rounder! I’ve used these for fishing worm over ground bait and they are superb mainly because they don’t blunt easily.
When finesse is required you can’t beat a gamma black or green. I’ve landed carp upto 4lb in winter on a green so I know they have surprising levels of strength!
They are many other very good patterns too including the drennan range but the above are the most commonly used by myself whether I use mono or fluro.
