Anyone know of a good and fairly cheep hook sharpener? I don't have anything for sharpening hooks right now.

Ever been to Rollie and Helens? Awesome little musky shop.

I use a Bps sharpener. It was pretty cheap but gets the job done.

 

Haven't been there but do droll over their annual catalog.

Any hook that's plated you will want to sharpen before use. I believe the file came from northernbass.com and works fine on larger hooks.

 

Use a small, flat stone on hooks smaller than say, a size 1. I tried Cabela's grooved, cylindrical sharpener but like the stone better.

 

I don't sharpen Gamakatsu or other chemically sharpened worm hooks thinking I'm better off replacing them.

go to the hardware store and buy you a quality mill file.  it will sharpen any hook out there.  i have used one for years.
