381: Chapter 370: The Knowledge of Fish Hooks 381: Chapter 370: The Knowledge of Fish Hooks “Based on different usage scenarios for fishing lines, they can be divided into high-speed lines and low-speed lines!”
High-speed lines are suitable for fishing in high-intensity situations, with a harder line body, greater strength, and very little stretch!”
In contrast, low-speed lines are suitable for more casual, slow-speed fishing scenarios.
They have better extension properties and offer superior buffering effects when big fish strike, making it less likely for the fish to run or unhook, but they do cause a certain amount of stretching!”
In normal fishing, one should apply them reasonably according to the actual situation to utilize their respective advantages!”
Depending on the size of the target fish, the model of the line also varies.
Currently, the thinnest fishing line used in Taiwan fishing is around 0.08#, with commonly used models including 0.15/0.2/0.3/0.4/0.6/0.8/1.0/1.2/1.5/2.0/2.5/3.0/3.5/4.0/5.0, which are more frequently used.
Having introduced the fishing lines, let’s talk about fishing hooks!
The hook types currently used in Taiwan fishing mostly follow those from Japan, such as commonly seen barbed hooks Ishiyama, Ishiyama, Sleeve Hooks, Marusei, and Sento.
Barbless hooks include Kanto, New Kanto, Kaiyu, and others!”
Now there’s a question.
Does anyone know how the nas of fishing hooks are determined?
Take a guess, speak up enthusiastically!!”
After disseminating a wealth of knowledge, the trainees’ emotions gradually relaxed from the tense state of instruction before the lecture.
Soon, a guy in the front row nad Qian Jin raised his hand.
“I know, fishing hooks are nad after places in Japan!
Places like Ise, Izu, and Kanto are all place nas in Japan!!”
Yang Wenjian nodded, “That’s interesting.
Anyone else want to add sothing?”
Ma Tingting raised her hand and also stood up, “They are nad based on the shape of the hooks!
For instance, the Sleeve Hook is so nad because it has a relatively long shank and a narrow gap, resembling a sleeve!”
Yang Wenjian continued to nod, “Tingting is right, does anyone else have sothing to add?”
After that, no one else had anything to add.
Everyone looked at each other in silence, not making a sound.
Faced with this kind of classroom interaction, Yue Feng, sitting by the window, still felt relatively relaxed and didn’t want to stand out.
But just then, a system alert chid in his head!
Ding!
The system has detected that the host is in a state of laxity.
If this state continues, it could potentially affect the final score of the related storyline task.
Please take this seriously, host!
Special reminder: This warning will only be given once before the completion of the storyline task.
Please adjust your attitude, host!!
Damn it?
I’m getting a system prompt for a lax attitude?
Not answering Instructor Yang’s questions also affects the final score?
Is this not forcing to stand out?
When it ca to choosing between scoring and standing out, Yue Feng made his decision very easily.
The next second, Yue Feng raised his hand!
“Co on, Yue Feng, tell us what you think!” Yang Wenjian glanced at Yue Feng, signaling for him to speak.
Yue Feng cleared his throat, organized his thoughts, and said, “The fishing hooks used in Taiwan fishing are primarily based on Japanese products!
There are several common naming thods for fishing hooks.
First is naming them based on the target fish for which these hooks are used.
The most typical example is Sento, which in Japanese refers to the snapper.
The hooks used to catch it were later called Sento!
Marusei, similar to the seabass, smaller in size, a number 1 Sento is equivalent to a number 10 Marusei.
For example, the Haixi hook is also used to catch a kind of sea bream.
Compared to others, its hook door is rather wide, and the wire of the hook is thinner than that of the Qianyou.
A number 1 Qianyou is equivalent to a number 8 Haixi.
Apart from being nad after the targeted fish species, hooks can also be nad after places, such as Ishiyama.
“Ise” is a place na, and “ni” ans “ama” in Japanese, which refers to female divers who collect shellfish.
So the literal aning of Ishiyama in Japanese is the won who collect shellfish from the sea.
The Ishiyama hook evolved from the Qianyou hook, with a shank that’s slightly shorter than that of Qianyou, a wire that’s a bit thicker, and a base that’s slightly angular.
It doesn’t have the roundness of a Qianyou or the crooked mouth; generally, Ishiyama hooks are not crooked.
A Qianyou is larger in size; a number 1 Qianyou is equivalent to a number 6 Ishiyama.
Izu is also a place na, and this hook originated from the Izu region.
A number 1 Qianyou is equivalent to an Izu number 10.
Kanto is another place na.
The new Kantō hook has the sa shape as the Kanto hook but is 8 sizes larger.
The wire of the hook is 1 to 2 sizes thicker, so a number 1 new Kantō is equivalent to a number 9 Kanto.
The Sleeve Hook was originally called Tokyo Sleeve and originated from the Tokyo area.
There’s also a theory that it is nad for its narrow hook door, which resembles a sleeve shape.
As for other lesser-known hooks such as improved versions or new improved ones, they won’t be discussed here!”
Yue Feng answered the question with all seriousness, and the previously noisy classroom suddenly fell silent in an instant.
Instructor Yang Wenjian was also taken aback!
As the instructor for this session, Yang Wenjian had done his howork, and he knew that ordinary fishern wouldn’t be aware of these obscure knowledge points about hook nas.
Qian Jin and Ma Tingting had already given answers that were basically adequate, but unexpectedly, there erged a Yue Feng, who provided an extrely systematic and professional explanation about the obscure knowledge of fishing hooks.
He detailed the relative sizes of the hook numbers, which was more than anyone could handle!
“Good!
It seems that little Yue has systematically studied and researched this topic!
Very good, indeed!
Although this is an extended topic of knowledge, everyone should take it seriously!
Learn from squad leader Yue Feng!!
That’s the attitude one should have when learning!” Yang Wenjian said with generous praise.
Yue Feng just grinned and didn’t say a word, then sat back down in his seat.
Seeing Yue Feng gain the spotlight again, Zhao Zhe, sitting in the back, whispered to a classmate with a sneer, “This guy really loves to show off, so juvenile!”
Despite their prejudices, thinking it was fine for Yue Feng to show off, the other students had a good opinion of Yue Feng’s performance.
A squad leader is a squad leader after all, so knowledgeable!!
“Having discussed the origin of hook nas, let’s move on to the characteristics of different hook types, and the corresponding fish species!
I believe everyone present has so fishing experience, but may not be deeply familiar with the characteristics of the hooks.
Let briefly talk about them here!
Ishiyama, Qianyou, and Koji!
These types of hooks have thicker wires, wider hook doors, and slight inwardly curved tips, offering great strength, and are suitable for stationary fishing for larger fish!
Izu and the new Kantō, these straight-point hook types are very sharp, with wires that are moderately thick, making them suitable for dium-sized fish weighing between one to seven or eight pounds.
The Sleeve Hook, with its very thin wire and extrely sharp point, as well as a longer shank, is suitable for catching fast, small fish, and is mostly used for small bream!”
As soon as Instructor Yang finished speaking, Qian Jin in the front row raised his hand again, “Report, instructor, the principle you ntioned doesn’t seem to be very strict either.
The Ishiyama and the like also have small hooks like number one; couldn’t they be used for catching small fish?”
Yang Wenjian smiled and continued to explain, “That’s just a rough classification thod, not absolute!
Like Izu and new Kantō, there are also smaller size numbers suitable for dium and small fish, but the hooks are heavier and not as easy to take as Sleeve Hooks.
In my opinion, using these small-numbered hooks for fishing is more suitable for complex wild fish conditions, with relatively thicker sub-lines for fishing.
This allows for a certain degree of versatility and increases the margin of error!
However, in competitive fishing, where the targeted species of fish are relatively clear, such situations are very rare!”
Qian Jin scratched his head, “Understood!!”
