So I have been looking for this hook for a while now with no luck and it just occurred to me that if anyone knows where to find it someone on here will know. I do not have a picture of the exact hook, but it is very similar to the one below. The only difference is the hook I am looking for as a small slender weighted jighead on it, green in color and usually about 1/8 ounce. If anyone has any idea where to find these please let me know. I really like them for fishing wacky worms a little deeper. Thanks in advance.

Got them hanging on the wall in the shop. Send me your address and $5 for postage and they are all yours. Not sure how many are out there. Probably 20 to 30 dollars worth. Just like the one in the picture; no green weight. Sorry for the edit.

Send a PM. to exchange addresses.

When I want them weighted; I use a light piece of solder wire and wrap the shank.

I have always used these for this exact thing. They are made by Revenge Baits. I also only use their jigs as well. These come in sizes 1/16, 1/8, 3/16 and 1/4

Eagle Claw seems to have the weights.

The ones with little green head were at academy. They are weighted wacky jigs, haven't seen them in awhile.

this exactly ..... Academy / Bass pro Shops / Donald Harper

I have been using them for 4 years to fish wacky senkos and trick worms
I use the 3/0 and the 5/0
I use a clam weight (different sizes) crimped on just above the knot to produce different fall rates for the wacky worms.
I also use them on my flukes when I am fishing in grass --- also with clam weights (or weightless)
GREAT HOOKS

Google "flick shake head" and see if you find what you are looking for.

Similar? Not really a jig head but sort of a high keel weight.

This is what you are looking for. The link should take you right to them, but in case not, they are "Gamakatsu Wireguard Worm Hooks" .

Thanks for all the responses guys. Some good suggestions, but still not exactly what I am looking for. I'm guessing they are no longer made.
