Model FST 6-A (3/16th-1/2 oz.)
90 degree jig hook style.
I'm looking to use a heavier hook than the recommended Mustad 32746's, Owner 5318's, or Gama 114's. Basically I want to use these in saltwater and need to go with a beefier hook. The Gama 604s do fit and cast well, but want to know if there are other options anyone has used. The mold requires a jig with a bit longer eye stem (think Mustad 32746s), so I am just eeking these out with the shorter eye stem from the Gama 604s.
The Eagle Claw 635s are tinned and appear to have a bit longer eye stem, but I have not used them before nor do I have them in my possession. The Mustad 32833s look like they might be a good choice as well. At the end of the day, I don't need Gama hooks, and frankly would prefer to find a more cost friendly option. They don't need to be tinned either.
Any advice, discussion or direction would be appreciated. I can always mod, but no point in modding if there are options out there
