I'm a regular on the Hard Bait board, but no one there seems to know where I can get a VERY long shanked 8/0 or larger hook. I need the longest shank possible, something like XXX long (6 inches). It's for saltwater use. I know mustad used to make one with a nickle finish and a beak type barb. They need to be strong as they'll be used for Stripers and Big Blues.
Can anyone here steer me in the right direction. I used to get them from Midland Tackle, but they're not around anymore.
TIA
Mike P

These are what I have. Appears to be about a 7/0, overall length 4.5 inches and I think they are Eagle Claw. I have about 35 or so here in Georgia and I think I have a 100 + in Florida. If you can use them let me know.
