Snakeheadlures Posted February 20, 2004 Report Share Posted February 20, 2004 Does anyone know where you can get the large offset shank worm type hooks like the one that comes with a Missionfish?I went to a boat show and fishing tournament called Fishstock.Its a boat show fishing seminar and fishing tournament.I met a guy that makes a bunch of different lures for fresh and saltwater.You guys may have seen some of his lures in Cabelas,he has crabs,Crawdads,frogs,shrimp and a mouse that sell all over in stores and online.He has a website but its under construction.(realures.com)He had some prototype lures he broke out after we stopped at his booth for the hundredth time.He had a Mullet topwater lure that "walked the dog"it was a really neat lure like a swimbait yet a topwater and no action in the tail.It did have fins and all though.It was a big lure and the kicker is its weedless! My question is where can you buy those big weedles hooks? You guys should check out this guys site when he gets it back up and running.He had a bunch of prototype lures like a croaker and a pinfish and all of them had the tube through design and a popup hook setup like a missionfish.He said those lures would be available but he wasnt sure when. I hope hes adding all of them to his site and thats why its down. Anyway I guess Ill quit the jaw flappin now.Any info on the hooks would be great!!The sizes Im looking for are as big as 90. TIGHTLINES!! D.C. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigZ Posted February 26, 2004 Report Share Posted February 26, 2004 I looked at the Mustad site and they only make weedless hooks up to 6/0 wide gap. Check it out, maybe they have what you need. http://www.mustad.no/northamerica/fulline/freshwater/freshwater_13b.htm The only other place I could think of is VMC, and they do not list a weedless hook. Hope this helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
