Picked up this new hook to try on some 3/16oz finesse jigs. Flat eye 1/0 with a shorter eye length. Nobody makes a 3/16oz football mold so I am currently Frankensteining together some. A lot of sanding and JB Weld trying to get them right.

    Who makes the hook? The only hook I know that looks similar to that is Owner's straight eye 5304, and that is a really sharp hook.

    Allen I don’t know just what you are doing when you mention sanding and JB Weld. I make my version of the Jewel Pee Wee jig. I take a 3/8 oz football jig and file the bottom with a wretched mill file to make lt 5/16 oz and the 1/2 oz to make it 7/16 also using 2/0 little nasty hooks.
