Does anyone on TFF carry keeper type jig hooks of any kind? Raw hooks is OK.

Mr. Mays,
This is the best style of keeper hook that I've ever used. Very hard to pull the bait off and if you put a small amount of the gel super glue, the bond is awesome.
They have a small diameter lead keeper on the shaft of the hook that uses the same principle as a ring shank nail, only wish I was able to get them with a sickle hook!

Yes, I do know some about this hook and the price is very fair but by next summer it would be nice to not use any glue. A real Texas summer and a lot of us end up with tackle box well glued together. Todd I do thank you, but the way to have the best in jigs and jig hooks is for the people who use them come up with a better ideal. This style of jig head the 1/8 is to much lead and the 1/48 not enough to have a head as the collar is using most of it. But for now in the middle weights this is the best out maybe. Most molds in number 4 size hooks use a .028 and will do sickle hooks as well as the eagle claw 570, and 574. The 574 is the 1X long we use for bigger tied jigs and the bigger plastic jigs some need it. Thanks again for good work you guys do.
