I just bought the DO-IT SUB-3-AY WEEDLESS STAND UP JIG MOLD and it says it takes a Eagle claw 1623 hook.  Only problem is I don't want Eagle claw.  Anyway, I called and spoke with the guy at Do it, and he said that he doens't know anyone else that makes a hook to match this mold.  He said that it is a 28 degree flat eye hook, wich I know will vary sligtly between brands, but does anyone know where I can find a better hook to fit this mold?  I know the first fish I lose I am gonna cuss them hooks.  

Thanks for any help

Mustad maks several 28 degree hooks but they are not flat eye. A do-it mold can be modified to accept the regular eye hooks with a dremel. Use the bit that looks like a bullet and slowly press down at the mold eyelet until it is concave. I did this with my mold and it works just fine.

I figured I would have to use a dremel tool, but I thought I would post here first before I go pokin on my mold.  I will probably have to do a lot of experimenting with it before I get it right.  

Thanks
