Hi there rw02kr43 - Basically a snelled hook is simply a fishing hook that has been tied to eight or nine inches of monofilament, with a loop at the end of the line. The advantage is that they are a lot easier to put on a line or to change between one and another, for instance, changing from a larger hook to a smaller one or the other way around. A di
vantage is with the looped end, which is connected to the fishing line, creates drag in the water. This can be detected by fish and is occasionally a hindrance to catching fish, particularly in fast flowing water.[/size][/#008000][/font]
