sproat

Definitions

Examples

• The short barb, with cutting edges, of the Sproat hook renders it superior to the Virginia.

• I used the Sproat bend, No. 7-0, but 5-0 would be large enough for the average-sized cero.

• Sproat hooks Nos. 1-0 and 2-0 are quite suitable, and should be tied on gut snells.

• Sproat hooks of various and suitable sizes cannot be excelled for any kind of Florida fishing, if of the best quality.

• Hooks come in a great variety of shapes and models but there are none better than the standard "Sproat."
