it really depends on what species you are fishing for,on the bait you will be using it also goes on conditions of the water or if the fish are biting "shy" generally the whole concept is to present a bait as "natural" as you can get it so not to spook the fish,for instance if your using maggots i would say a size 16 to 24 for sweetcorn pellet etc.. i would use a 12-14 for bread flake/crust etc..8-10now for a nice lump of luncheon meat i would use 6-8 on the leadger, this is a rough guide for you i have included a URL for you that explains it in more depth hope this helped!!!

What part of the hook hooks the fish?
if you are going for fishing it is recommended that you buy a complete fishing set. But, I recommend live bait like earthworms. If it is in an aquarium I suggest that you buy a fishing net whose size depends on the size of the fish you are breeding.

Why should fishing be limited?
It should be limited so there will always be fish to caught in the future. The problem is that commercial size limits are a lot smaller than the size recreation fisherman are allowed to keep. Commercial fishing also wastes alot of fish in the form of by-catch (fish species they can't keep/don't want) death.

What size is 00 crochet hook in US?
00 is a steel hook size. Manufacturers vary in their mm sizing. I found 00 hooks listed as 2.75 to 3.5mm If you have a particular hook and you need to know the mm sizing of it, I suggest you purchase a Crochet Hook Size Gauge Tool. The knitting needle ones do not give accurate sizing for a crochet hook. Annie's Attic sells these and I'm sure other stores do as well.
What kind of yarn is best used for size 3mm crochet hook?
A 3mm aluminum hook (in the U.S.) would probably be a C hook. (Hook sizes are not always the same when made by different manufacturers.) Fingering or sock yarn would be best suited to this size hook. That said, manufacturers generally note the suggested hook size on the label of the yarn. That is a suggested size only and you are free to choose a different size hook with which to work that yarn. Also, your pattern will likely tell you what size hook to use and the appropriate yarn for your project. If you are looking at steel hooks, you would have a size between a 1 and 0 hook which would be used for thread, probably size 5.
