cabela10 Posted January 24, 2006 Posted January 24, 2006 I posted this thread here because it has to do with making jigheads for my tubebaits. Does anyone know where I can find some of these hooks. I emailed Gamakatsu and they emailed me back with a website that works maybe 65% of the time and when I emailed there person, they told me they only had about 1000 of these hooks available and I can't see them before I order them. Does anyone know of a site that has these exact hooks. I am an internet search king and can't find any of these hooks. Quote
Siebert Outdoors Posted January 24, 2006 Posted January 24, 2006 Check these guys out. http://www.barlowstackle.com/fishing-hooks-heavy-duty-jig.html Or these guys http://www.staminainc.com/hooks.html From your earlier post of how many you lose you may want to check out Mustad needle point hooks they tend to be quite a bit cheaper and work as good or if not better imo. I switched over to them because of the cost of gammies. Quote
cabela10 Posted January 25, 2006 Author Posted January 25, 2006 Well, I trust Gamakatsu and believe in their hooks. I have Gamakatsu on my tow vehicle. The price of the hooks don't matter to me, I have my best hookup ratios with Gamakatsu's. Will never replace the first thing that hooks up the fish for me. Quote
cabela10 Posted January 25, 2006 Author Posted January 25, 2006 GLoomisMan... those are the same type hooks I keep finding. Those aren't the Etra Wide Gap hooks that I'm looking for. I've been using some tubejigs from a company called Ohio Lure Company. They are the only ones to use the 3/0 EWG Gamakatsu hooks with the 60 degree bend. I found a mold for it already, but need a more reliable source to get the hooks. Quote
Siebert Outdoors Posted January 25, 2006 Posted January 25, 2006 Try this one I think I found them. There is a light wire and a heavy wire one. I have used these before and they are great hook http://www.jannsnetcraft.com/gamakatsu-flipping-jig-hooks/ Quote

Siebert Outdoors Posted January 25, 2006 Posted January 25, 2006 WOWOWOWOWOWOWOW.... I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU FOUND THE EXACT HOOKS I WAS LOOKING FOR....Thank you a TON!THANK YOU. No problem, any time. I am the jig accesory finding machine. I have spent countless hrs looking around for different hooks and accesories for making jigs. I know barlows has them too but their site isnt working on that perticular page. Quote
