I like the Iwata Neo, if there is a Hobby Lobby near you, I would go that route with the 40% off coupon, it was cheaper than I could find it online. I am lucky enough to have one on my way to work so I built my paint collection one at a time by stopping in daily and using the coupon.

Great video! I'd love to start dipping tubes, what about herb scissors for cutting the tails? Could a guy use teflon rods instead of steel?

Has anyone tried out the Eagle Claw 500BP AKA Lil Nasty hooks, or any of the 500 color variations? I like nearly everything about the Matzuo Sickle hook, but it has 1 fatal flaw, which is the microscopic barb that they put on them. I have never had a problem with them losing fish, but I have gone through pounds of leeches because of them. I was wondering how to they compare to the sickles, mostly barb size, but also if there are any aspects in which the Matzuo outshines the Eagle Claw.

I'm just going to leave this here: http://www.ffo-tackle.com/detail.cfm?PassProdId=6609

Thanks, order will be placed soon.

I was wondering if the EL111BP hook fits into the Tube-TX mold without modification. I love the hook and would like to have a tube head with it in there. If not I will just use the Gami 2014.

All of the things that you listed are why I was looking to modify that mold. I really wanted to have the option to do either eye in one mold, but my biggest reasoning was the issue of the collar on the Snootie jig.

I am looking to drill out the eye on the Do-It Trokar Pro Swim jig mold so it can accept a parallel 60 degree eye like the Mustad 32786; any warnings, suggestions, or experience doing this?
