Looking for a Hook

Featured Replies

I'm looking for a straight shank hook (preferably with baitholder barbs) that has a vertical turned eye (parallel to the hook point) instead of the traditional horizontal eye for a little project I'm working on. It's pretty easy to find jig hooks with the eyes turned that way, but not the straight shank hook. Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Sam

Minnow, someone ought to make these but the closest I know of would be a VMC 28 degree angled jig hook.

 

It'd be worth a look to see if it'd work for your intended application.

And, these, but small sizes only.

Don't know that I've seen on ?

 

Try Barlow's Tackle I'm thinking they have 16° jig hooks.

You might also look at Captain Hooks.

Mustad 91768, no barbs and not straight shank. Gamakatsu 474 is a close as I can think of.

Thanks. Ordered a couple of different options, we'll see how they work out.
