    Default Lightwire Jigs


    Does anyone know a good source for lightwire (hooks) jigs, preferrably 1/32 heads. I'm wanting to tie some dock shooters and I prefer the lightwire hooks so they can be pulled free. Thanks.
    It aint how big or how fancy your boat is, it's how many fish you can put in the frying pan!

    Just use gold hooks and you should be able to pull them loose. Just because they are light-wire doesn't always mean they will pull loose easy either. It is more to do what the hardness of the steel used to make them.

    Looking for something in a #4 hook also. I prefer the heads to be unpainted. Thanks, and will pm Grousefly now.

    Contact lightwirehooker, he sent me some samples and the hooks are fine wire. The finest (thin) wire hooks I have seen. Placed an order with him.

    ditto on lightwirehooker. He has the extra light hooks that are only available through a couple of people.These hooks are lighter than your typical eagle claw hooks
