In my experience, many anglers think that baiting a hook is as simple as simply tying on a hooks and hooking bait onto it. Although this is technically true, it isn’t the most effective way to do it. Not by a long shot. Think about this. You can cook a hamburger in a pan and the hamburger can be eaten, but is this the most effective way to cook a hamburger? No way, the most effective way to cook a hamburger is on a grill. Well, the same goes for baiting a hook.
I suppose I should clarify that I’m actually referring to hooks because what I’m really referring to is using a set of gang hooks. So, rather than using a single hook, you use a set of gang hooks. A set of gang hooks is, by far, the most effective way to present live bait (especially live worms). As far as baiting a hook goes, a set of gang hooks is the way to do it. A set of gang hooks is a grill and a single hook is a pan, and as we said, a grill is the way to cook a hamburger. Well, a set of gang hooks is the way to bait a hook, especially when live worms are involved.
Although gang hooks are effective for baits like Powerbait, minnows, and leeches too, I focus on live worms simply because worms are the most popular of all baits used in fishing. And if you’re going to fish with worms, you might as well do it in the most effective way possible, right?
So where do you get a hold of a set of pre-tied gang hooks ? Simple. With a little knot research, you can tie them yourself or you can go somewhere like JRWfishing.com and purchase them, it makes no difference. What important is that you begin using gang hooks as soon as possible. You see two small hooks tied in tandem (which is what gang hooks are) enables the angler to present live bait (especially worms) in a completely natural manner. Your bait ends up looking like it would is nature, without any hooks in it. This is an obvious advantage to the angler.
Which do you think a fish is more likely to bite? A worm that has been threaded onto a #4 hooks, and looks like a “worm ball” or a worm thatÂ’s been hooked on a set of size 10 gang hooks and looks natural with no visible hooks? I’ll let you make that decision, but I promise you that I know the answer to this question, and that answer involves more than one hook.

Fishing with Dad $3.48 Michael J. Rosen, who has taught 200,000 children the pleasures of fishing through his best-selling activity book The Kids’ Book of Fishing, returns to the rod and reel with a new children’s storybook, Fishing with Dad. In an exceptionally lyrical story, Rosen recaptures all the Sundays he spent with his father at favorite fishing holes as he watches his father–now a grandfather–take his grandson to those same places. He hears his father’s same advice, watches him teach the same lessons: how to bait, how to cast, and how to be patient. In the voice of a young boy, Fishing with Dad invokes all the details and drama of the fishing experience: hiking to the perfect fishing spot, sorting the lures and untangling lines, skipping flat stones, and, of course, the excitement of the bobber zipping across the water, netting a fish, watching it swim in the holding bucket, and letting it go. The story also reveals the father’s fishing secret: somehow a fish was always waiting to bite when the boy returned from his creekside wanderings. A story of wonder and discovery for young anglers, a gift of nostalgia and love for grown-up experts, Fishing with Dad is a book for everyone whose memories include some unhurried time at the water’s edge, tossing a hook and a bit of hope into the current. |

Fishing for Barracuda $3.48 Fishing For Barracuda? Is this a book about therapy? Most certainly! In fact, it is about working systemically with the most challenging families and individuals, the ones who have already defeated therapist after therapist. At the same time, Joel Bergman presents a multitude of therapeutic tactics that will be useful with a wide range of families, from minnows to submarines. Drawing extensively upon his own experiences as a therapist and as a family member, Bergman shares strategic interventions that are paradoxical, humorous, shocking, and effective. He focuses in particular on the therapist’s need to "stay alive", to control the momentum towards change, and to make every therapeutic session dramatic and meaningful. As the title implies, some families can involve therapists in potentially lethal contests. Bergman’s goal is to balance the odds, to help therapists develop the skills to change families quickly. Numerous case studies demonstrate his pragmatic way of using rituals, metaphors, and other strategies to hook families and then send them on their way with new resources – without being devoured! |

Hook, Line and Murder $3.98 Hook, Line and Murder is not just a murder mystery. It’s also a romance story, and a poignantly amusing look at fly fishing. In fact, the hero falls in love with the woman who teaches him to cast. So the romantic parts are sexy rather than mushy, and the fly fishing parts are entertaining rather than technical. Hook, Line and Murder is also about morality. The hero faces some hard questions, because the ethics of the situation are not black and white. My favorite review so far compared the book’s central issues to "the hard-boiled moral choices faced by Dashiell Hammett’s characters." I also liked the review that called the ending "stunningly different." |

Fishing with Blood $4.48 The poet explains the origin of the poetry books unusual title: "A sure way to catch catfish and other bottom-feeders is to squeeze a ball of partially dried cow’s blood around a hook. The blood dissolves slowly, spreading its tendrils of odor into the surrounding water. It’s like the tight wad of blood relations out of which I keep flinging myself and my words, both to lure whatever is out there and to assure myself of how tightly I’m hooked to the center." |

How to Hook Your Spouse $12.98 Nothing challenges priority more than a compulsion for sports. How to Hook Your Spouse is part autobiography and part guidebook for sustaining a marriage. Humorous stories illustrate the life-cycle of bonding with a sports-obsessive using fishing as central metaphor. Georgene Simon Dreishpoon is married to a retired physician who claims in his next life he wants to come back as a fishing guide. He chases the fish. She chases him. She’s been chasing him for forty-nine years. The author says, "We joke about compulsions. The term ‘fishing widow" says it all. The fishermen were not dead, just caught up in their priority. Parenthood changed my priority. It was during this period that my husband and I had our best fights. I was determined not to be a ‘fishing widow.’" While the author fished with her husband, she says, "I’m more like his pocket edition." Together they have explored the aura of fishing in the United States, Canada, Ireland, Scotland, the Bahamas, and Africa. She’s heard fishermen grumble that "women just don’t understand." She says, "The same can be said for the other side." This book is an attempt to humorously enlighten both genders. |
