Just ordered some Nash fang twisters from Harefield Tackle.

The old ones or the pinpoint ones?

If they are the old ones then they are brilliant, if they are the pinpoint ones, not so much

Just tried to find out but not sure. Was the only place i found that had them in stock. Size 8's should be ok for 15mm pop-ups?

Personally I always prefer to use a bigger hook, size 6 or 4 with 15mm pop ups, but I am fishing a water that has very few under 20lb.

If you're fishing for smaller fish you may feel more confident with smaller hooks

Ill step up when im in France but only a few 30's in my current lake so 8's should be fine.

Can't remember the last time I used anything so small tbh, big is best imo

What size would you use for UK and France? I only tend to use 8's for bottoms and wafters on the lake i currently fish as nothing really massive in there.

I'm in France at the moment using 4s and 5s, same as I use in the UK for all sizes of fish, even doubles

That's more hooks ordered!

Size 6 Drennan continental for me, UK or France. Had loads of 40s and fish up to 55lb on this exact rig.

I would never drop down to an 8 but have occasionally used a 4.

Size 6 seems to suit the small pop ups I use.

Try a bigger hook with a small pop up mate, it looks very wrong but is seriously good for hook holds. 12mm on a size 4 in particular

In reply to Post #28
The biggest hook you can get away with and it still pop up

In reply to Post #25
Made a rig up today and the size 8 does look a bit small. Got some 4's coming tomorrow so will stick one of them on.
