BSUBASS Posted June 27, 2008 Report Share Posted June 27, 2008 Hello everybody, I'm new to TU. I am just starting out with making my own bass jigs. I've been having quite a bit of trouble finding good hooks to use. I finally switched to Gamakatsu and they are amazing. However, I want to purchase a new Weedless Bullet jig mold and cannot find any Gamakatsu hooks to fit it. All that I can find heavy enough are Mustads, and those straighten out too easily. I use alot of braid and its needed where I'm pitching these babies. Is that another hook company out there as tough as Gamakatsu that makes a 28 degree bend hook? Any help would be greatly appriciated. Thanks in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rr316 Posted June 28, 2008 Report Share Posted June 28, 2008 He needs a 30 degree eye, Gammie doesn't make one, I find the Mustad hooks acceptable, try the 91768 ewg, I think its a good hook, but I don't use braid just for the reason of bending out hooks!

Ogajiga Posted June 28, 2008 Report Share Posted June 28, 2008 Apparently Gary Yamamoto declined recovering stolen items, so eBay still has 5/0 35* heavy black Gami jig hooks being offered for $15 per 100. Seller Nick seems like a good guy and didn't know they were stolen when he bought from the thieves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
