canuck Posted May 11, 2018 Report Share Posted May 11, 2018 Hi guys. Was wondering if I could use the eagle claw 2190 hooks with my Gary Yamamoto swim jig mold as a cheaper alternative to the Gamakatsu 474 v eye hook? Any wire gauge difference between the two? Would there be enough shank to accommodate the bait keeper lead before the bend? Any one tried this yet . pros and cons Any ideas about hook set ratio change from the bent shank hook section. In pics they look relatively close other than the bend? Thanks to all for any info and feed back. Canuck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canuck Posted May 24, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 24, 2018 Since I have had no feed back on this by members I contacted do-it directly and had my questions / curiosity quenched. The 2190 will not work for me. A pic from do-it showing the hook in mold really put that question to rest. Thanks to all and a shout out to the staff at do-it. Great customer service. Yours in fishing and lure building. Canuck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
