To catch a crab, all you need is a bit of bacon (preferably the rind) and a fishing line. Do crabs like pork? Here is no argument about the most popular and versatile-eyed hook we use – it is the allround Aberdeen. The pattern stands out from the rest because of its long shank and distinct squared, round bend and small eye. Available in a host of wire types, strengths and colours from various manufacturers, it is the most often used hook pattern in British waters.

Using Peeler crab for the fist time tonight and your guide was just what I was looking for,Favoured for easy baiting with worms and sandeels because the long shank makes threading the hook easier and the small eye passes through the flesh causing minimum damage. Gape:The gape is the gap between the point and the shank. Larger gape hooks are needed for big baits or for fishing weedlessly. Useful for anglers that are fish welfare conscious and want to minimise damage to bass while using plugs. Really excellent idea, especially if you do 100% catch and release. Useful for anglers that are not using worm baits and perhaps prefer not to use baiting elastic to hold baits to the hook. Mustad Baitholder Hooks, available here

It’s also difficult to thread worm baits on circle hooks. When sport is expected to be fast, some anglers often only use frozen crabs because peeling enough to constantly feed a two or three hook rig is far too time consuming. Note the rounded, small single hook on this casting jig 3.
