Jig Man Posted March 17, 2010 Report Share Posted March 17, 2010 You might try Shorty's hook sales. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ogajiga Posted March 17, 2010 Report Share Posted March 17, 2010 Haven't seen any EC or Mustad ultra lights listed for many years. I assume you want snag bend out hooks - Matzuo round bend Aberdeen jig hooks are too soft for my liking and have chemically sharpened points.

For many years, I've been using Mustad 32751 jig hooks. They're a light wire, bronze, , extra long shank Aberdeen jig hook. In Mustads catalog, the 32751 is listed as an Extra strong wire, short shank Bronze Aberdeen jig hook ! Why ? I don't know but it's been listed wrong in their catalog for years ! The 32751 jig hooks are perfect for crappies and other panfish. I use 4 lb Fireline for most of my fishing and these hooks will bend without breaking. I've caught many big fish and can say that I've never lost one from the hooks bending or breaking ! Nice hooks for not a lot of money !

robalo01 Posted March 19, 2010 Report Share Posted March 19, 2010 What companies are asking for 100,000 minimums? I ususally buy from sorty's, but I might be interested in buying 100Gs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
