Miles, as for the tunny eating the front hook as in the red head, I have a red head that could be swopped for yours, chowed stukkend by the fyt. Only really noticeable on the red heads though. maybe its cos it caught more then my other ones, but I find they definatelt eat fronm the bottom like that. As for chaffe marks from hooks, not to that extent. You do get a few but not as many as in the pic.
