Re: Extra Wide Gap - Jig Hooks

Haven't seen any 90* wide gaps available besides the 37188s which samples I got appeared to be poor quality Mustad "classic". If just for your own use you can bend standard "J" or Sickle hooks into wide gaps pretty easily. By putting the new bend into the straight shank just on the eye side of the existing J bend the strength shouldn't be significantly affected. Further bending of the already curved "J" will almost certainly weaken the bend out resistance of the hook. This suggestion is the result of my own experimentation, and not the qualified advice from hook mfgs.
