The cache is not at the listed coordinates!
This is the 4th in a series of Walleye fishing themed puzzle caches that I'll be putting out. I've learned alot about catching these elusive creatures and so I thought I'd mix a little of my fishing hobby with my caching hobby. The puzzles will not be real easy but, they'll all share a common solve theme -- figure out what the picture is, match up, and or do a little math. Similar to puzzle solving/caching, when chasing the Sander Vitreus, you have to figure things out on the fly and do a lot of ciphering especially when fishing in tournaments. Once you've figured the puzzle out you can set the hook, reel the cache in, net it, take a picture, and then set it free for others to find.
The Topic: Hooks
The selection of hooks is endless and is very dependent on the technique or method of fishing. A live bait hook is deployed when live bait rigging (obviously) or it can be used as a trailer on a jig. Trebles are used on most crankbaits but, doubles are also used but, it depends on the type of structure being fished. Whichever type of hook that is used it's a must that it is sharp. The bony and toothy mouth of a walleye will spit a dull hook out as soon as it latches on. Checking the hook point and barb, on occasion, is a mandatory. Keeping a sharpener or stone handy to dust/clean up the points of a hook is an absolute must.
The Puzzle:
Figure out the hook's name of each hook pictured and count the letters of the name to solve for the letter variable associated with each.
Here's the list of Hook names to help you out. They are in no particular order and not all of them are used - Good Luck!
