I have had no problems landing big fish on small hooks. Small hooks with thin wire slip in much easier than heavy gauge wire hooks. And yes, I do fish size one hooks on jigs in the ocean. Two large kings on a barbless gami size one died in two days with my approach of using fine wire hooks. Flying C and the new blue fox squid spinners whack fish and are available everywhere. Come on down to the wilson to fish broodstock steelies with me joe, you fish spinners, I fish floats and jigs, we will see at the end of the day how good we both do
