60 Dg Wide Gaps

Recommended Posts

Other than the 28 degree Mustad 91768 hooks, the Mustad 38108 and Mustad 38109 are probably as close as you are going to get. They are 45 degree hooks, but will fit in 60 degree molds; they are also flat eye design, so they won't fit in regular eye 60 degree molds without modification.

You can bend the eye of the 91768 to fit inside a 60 degree mold. The hooks aren't brittle like other brands and will not break. I've been doing this for some time to fit inside a football mold and haven't had a single problem. Just grab below the eye with a needle nose and make the proper bend. I'm sure if you did this several times, it would likely break but making one bend hasn't seemed to impair the hook. The bend is also inside the head so I'm sure that supports it as well. Many anglers really like this hook in a football jig.
