Matzuo has gone bankrupt is what I am hearing. I know there are hardly any place with black chrome #4 hooks right now.

If Barlows has them you better buy them. I bought 5,000 black chrome #4 today but I had to go to 4 different places. The funny part is I haven't poured any jigs in several months.

I noticed the wholesale price of EC Lil' Nasty has almost doubled from what I paid last Nov. EC is taking advantage of this.

Yes it's looking like hooks are going to have some issues for a while. Just glad I have plenty of what I need most.

I apologize to everyone for the miss information.
