How to use "Hooks" in context?
Hooks are essential to any fishing activity. There are basically two types of hooks - fixed and spinning. Fixed hooks are attached to the fish's upper jaw with a bar or shank, while spinning hooks are fitted with a magnet and are hinged at the top. Spinning hooks are more difficult to get out of a fish's mouth, but they give the angler a better chance of landing a bigger fish.
A fishing line is also important. It should be strong enough to withstand the tug of the fish, but not so strong that it's wound tightly around the reel.
