Blll Posted January 28, 2015 Posted January 28, 2015 Great video Dave, Can't wait to try those heads! Thanks!
dtrs5kprs Posted January 28, 2015 Author Posted January 28, 2015 Dave I have poured some with the Gammy's and I like them but hate the price. So I started pouring with a Matzou Sickle Hook. I love the price and they are sharp but they tend to break when hung up. I haven't had one break on a fish yet but I have a bunch on rocks and trees. Today I bought some Mustad 32833BLN . The price is good on them and they seem strong. I use a #2 in all my hooks. I don't sell mine, just use them for fun. Can you tell me about the Mustad? I'm sure you've tried it. Do you like it and do you like the #2 size or are you using a #4? That is the deal. I like the size 2. Same size as the Gamakatsu 604 in size 1. I ran a bunch of smaller hooks, and a few bigger ones, and kind of settled on that size as about right. Smaller can cost you fish, bigger kills the little bait.

dtrs5kprs Posted January 28, 2015 Author Posted January 28, 2015 Just a little bit. It is not a standard leg length so you will have to tweak your mold to make it fit. The length between the eye and shank is shorter than normal.
