That is one tiny hook for a jig hook!!!!!! What the heck mold goes with them??? I can see some split shot heads being formed on those hooks!!!

I went looking and found one place so far here in the states but they're going for $10.65 for 25 hooks. for that might just try to bend a 3906 fly hook to a 60 degree bend and see if I can do it and go from there.

Custom made mold that I had made awhile back just a real pain putting the hooks in place between pours with them being so small.... Other than that I dont think you will find very many molds made that can hold sickle hooks from an #8 down to a #12 without any problems at all....

guys, these type of kiptail jigs are my favorite, and have been using the 1/64 and 1/80 with a white crappie nibble on the hook, it catches everything. My best color combo has been black and yellow hair with red thread and a plain lead head, and have been using size 10 sickle hooks. Use a tiny cork with the little lead weight on the bottom, they are about as big around as a nickle. Oh, and also try gray hair with a pink head and tiny black eyes. thats a killer where there is tiny grass shrimp.
