I got about 50 a couple years ago with sickle hooks, but for the life of me, I can't remember where I got them...If I can figure it out I will let you know.

Robert at crazy angler does carry some Nickle plated head in the 4 hooks 1/8 and 1/16. I don't know about gold.
Barlow's there in Plano, has 6,8,10 hooks both nickel and gold plated in the lighter weight heads. Both has very good web-sites

Robert sold all he had left (to me I think) when he put them on Clearance a couple years ago. I'm using Rustoleum Metallic Gold spray enamel now to get a pretty nice gold plated look. I've got to paint a bunch of heads later today so I'll test the sprayed heads as an under coat for powder paint. Just to see if it holds up to the heat.

Tim White will do them for you. I saw some that were bought from him and they really looked good. However
I use Transparent Gold powder paint and dump a tube of fine gold flakes from Walmart into the powder paint and my jigs catch fish as good as the plated ones I think. They are not smooth bright gold but the fine/mini flakes are really bright just maybe not as smooth. Also I don't put any clear over the powder
paint.
