SO didnt fish last night and tied these up..I remebered to use less hair and less thread..I think they came out pretty decent! 1 pic wet the other dry! Quick question do you guys buy hooks in bulk? Its got to be cheaper than buying them by the pack(10 in a pack)
They look good.
Is that the Mustad 34007 hooks?
Looking good....
very nice work guy
Cool they look just like rainfish or small sandeels. What size hooks are you using?
Thanx guys!!
John, im using SL11-3H Gami 3x strong salt water hooks...I think the serial # is 13513-10 size 3/0..I dont really like any size smaller for bass..
Very nice.
I buy Mustad 34007, qty 100 normally.
From Captain Hook's Discount Warehouse
Nice.
I really like those hooks but as you said they are pricey!
They have a super sharp point that WONT roll over and stays sharp.
The model below has a bigger gap between shank and hook point. (This is the hook I tied on the sand eel fly that I gave you - size 2/0).
SP11-3L3H Perfect Bend Saltwater Series Fly Hook
I am going to try these next:
SC15 Wide Gap Saltwater Series Fly Hook
I already use the SC12 and like that, the SC15 is supposedly the same just a heavier gauge.
A much cheaper alternative to the hooks your using is the Mustad 3407DT (forged hook just like what you find in a bucktail but without the 60 or 90 degree bend in the eye).
They have the same style/bend the only difference is the 3407DT needs to be sharpened right out of the package and after catching multiple fish (just like a jig head).
The 3407DT is what I have seen on most commercially sold teasers.
The 34007 is the same as the 3407DT with the exception that it is a stainless hook and very prone to failing on a tight drag.
Save me a teaser I want one :d
looking good blazin.
Thanks JB on hook info. got to get more hooks, and that was helpful.
Nice job blazin!
