    5/0 ???

    I bought a box 100 3-ganged "5/0s" off eBay.

    Take a look at the picture of them against the hook size chart.

    Are these 5/0s ?

    (The chart is out of "The Australian Fishing Book" By Steve Starling)

    It happens often with different makes. Should be all about the gape but it's not. the girl eats a grape while standing on one foot in the small room.
    THE TRUTH IS OUT THERE....

    Yeh, you can score some bargains off ebay, but you have to be very careful. Lots of unscrupulous people of unspecified origins. Bought some line cheap, turned out to be cheap line!!! Then again, bought a $600 reel for $160. Buyer beware!
    Cheers and GOOD LUCK!
