Fish Hooks

Tony,

You mentioned you use fish hooks for connecting jib and backstay to hull. Would you explain sizes and how you do that?

Thanks!

Skip, I also use a fish hook, copied from John B. Saltwater tackle box had what worked, SS, I'll try to find the size. Cut off the barb and bend a little, works well for me. Back stay just use a variety of things I had available, made a hook, use snap hook.
