Could also be a Mustad 38109. Its a great hook and alot less than a Gamakatsu. MAV

I have never seen them for sale just hooks? Maybe some of the others on here may have a source? I do know they will not fit in any Do-It molds.

I think it is finer wire than the the 38109, but thanks for the replys.

It's a Gammy hook. It's a special order hook. You can't get them unless you intend to order 100,000. Only one place I know of gets them and he sells them to everyone else for the public to buy. I sell those heads as well but mine are using the new VMC hook. It's a little stronger hook. There is a national shortage right now on those gammy hooks. So it could be some time before we see those heads again with those hooks.

Thanks. What model VMC do you like? Everyone is telling me they want a finer wire hook that penetrates at the end of a long cast. They tell me they lose a lot of fish with many of the models out there now. The 38109 may be the best I can find that is readily available.

The Mustad 38108 is a little finer wire and may be good for what you want. Same hook as the 38109 just finer wire. In my opinion this is a better hook than the Gammi especially considering the problem getting the Gammi's.

The Mustad 38109 is the light wire version, the 38108 the heavy wire.

Thanks again guys!
