I'm told by clients that the Gamakatsu B10S Stinger in 2/0 is the best for Tigers. Any thicker hook is hard to set into their jaws. The B10S is extremely sharp, relatively cheap and strong. I have landed up to 40 pound Golden Dorado on it.

Greetings all, Quick question, don't suppose anyone has fished for tiger fish on the Zambizi river by any chance? I have a friend who has asked me to tie some flies for him and I'm wondering what hooks are advisable. I have heard they're big and grumpy and want hooks that are reliable.
