Slammingjack Posted June 21, 2017 Report Share Posted June 21, 2017 I can tell you the jump from 3/0 to 4/0 is real big. The 4/0 won't fit my mold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cudos to Barlow's for making choosing hooks easy depending how you search. Some ways they do this is to show quality pictures of hooks next to a ruler; also by type, manufacturer, size, heavy or light wire and some with approx wire diameters if they get molded. They also list prices, quantities and if they are in stock. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe you need to put your face in the corner, but, then again, that might scare off customers. Hahaha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smalljaw Posted June 23, 2017 Report Share Posted June 23, 2017 I actually sent an email to Eagle Claw about the sizing on those hooks and never got a reply. My issue is the 1 nd 1/0 are almost identical as is the 2/0 and 3/0 but I do like them, stronger than the Matzuo and no issues with 15% to 30% being bad. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SW Lures Posted June 23, 2017 Report Share Posted June 23, 2017 If your choice in hooks doesn't fit a mold but will fit the bait after made, think about modifing the mold. I have a person who likes 4/0 Eagle Claws. It didnt take much effort to change the mold to accept the hook. I agree with Smalljaws about certain size hooks. Real hard to tell sometime when the baits are finished. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Smalljaw good to know they are stronger with better quality. I will have to try some EC 500BP's. FYI No need to e-mail EC when Barlow's makes choosing hooks easy depending how you search.
