Tight Lines !
I do use 24/0.
That is as big as I go.
The one in the center is a 20/0.

Daron.
Those things are HUGE . . . I did manage to find a BIGGER one ( don't know the size ), but I sure wouldn't want to try to unhook whatever ate it !

The 24/0 pictured is Carbon steel.
$4 each from Catch All Tackle.
My dehooker doesn't work well with anything larger than a 20/0.
The long shanks make it impossible to roll the hook out.
I need to make my own out of rebar.
you paint it like a lifesaver;
give it to a fat girl who can't swim;
get her to paddle out, then yank her off the board...
it's like "kittening for muskies" :o
EzDave, now I'm considering the logistics of casting that hook... I've got way too much time on my hands....

Carl,
Funny, casting it occurred to me, also . . . I'm thinking along the lines of a Trebuchet to toss it and a "side of beef" - LOL !
