Reply With QuoteI know the little Nasty 10's are sure small sharp hooks. But they have the barb. I will try to look tomorrow, thinking I have a pack of #10 barbless in the shop. Will see if I can find them or still have them.

size 10 jig hooks
Anyone know of a 90 degree jig hook in size 8 or 10 in the barbless competition style? Comp hooks are usually found in competitive fly fishing. They have long needle like points that are barbless. They penetrate easier than any hook I have used and hold fish really well because of the elongated point. The rods we use have a lot of give so bouncing fish is not an issue.
Also would be interested in other barbed 90 decree hooks in size 8 or 10. I have used the Matzu (sp) sickle and EC. I have heard good things about the little nasty hooks. Vmc and Mustad also make them in barbs. Which brand and style number do you like and why please?
P.s. I am ordering a Jacobs 1/100 jig head mold for these.

I have the Matzuo and Eagle Claw hooks in size 10, several choices between them. I have traditional jig hooks from each company is size 10 , black nickel or black platinum. I have size 10 from both companies in sickle style hooks too in black nickel or black platinum. The Eagle Claw hooks get my nod hands down.

know the hook style you are referring to but only see them with a 60 degree eye.found a guy in canada that sells them much cheaper than the high end brands.same exact hooks but a better deal.most hooks are made in china now unfortunately

he is referring to a specialized fly hook,dont think it would be a good choice for pouring.i use them in 14 and 12 with a tungsten bead for bluegill flies and micro jigs,mine are 60 degree jig hooks

I think I am going to have to punt on the comp hooks. We use them with the tungsten beads also for trout when we go to AR to fish. I even tried to find a 60 Deg mold but doesn't look like there is one. Going to go with the Jacobs and order an assortment of hooks for a little trial and error. Will definitely try the little nasty. Also going to try some of the vmc's.

ordered the Jacobs and several makes and mods of hooks to play around with. We will see. I will try to post up some pics for reference once we play around with them a little.
