Generally, sizes 4/0 to 8/0 work well for most snapper species.2. **Baiting the Hook**: - **Live Bait**: If you’re using live bait like pilchards or mullet, insert the hook through the nostrils or behind the dorsal fin. This keeps the bait swimming naturally. - **Dead Bait**: For dead baits, thread the hook through the flesh, ensuring it’s secure
