Hook Eyes

hello
can someone please explain to me the difference between a balled eye and a tapered eye? which is better for what? thanks.

The tapered eye is just as it sounds, the wire that the hook is made out of. This allows for a smaller eye yet still have the same diameter as a non tapered eye.

still confused

I should have said INSIDE diameter.

Oh ok, i get it now. Sorry im a little slow on the uptake. thanks
