I spoke with Lazy Cody about his jig heads. I really like the short shank and wide gap. Bass Pro has Little Nastys or Nasties that are similar, but the shank is much longer than I'd like. Do any of you pour these and sell them or know a place I can pick up a few dozen? This is for my own personal use, I'm not looking to buy to resale. I am looking for a 1/8th oz and 1/4 oz version.

First I assume these are Matuzo Sickle hooks and their parent company went broke so they are not available now. The Lil Nasties are about the same except they are made different. The short shank is because of the extra bend. I still have a good many heads with these hooks and I do like them best, but can't get them now.

Skip that isn't good news for me. I guess I will accept the Lil Nasties how they are. Like I mentioned in another post, finding jig heads is like searching for toilet paper a couple months ago. I took the 3 packs they had of 1/8 oz. Zero in 1/4 oz, plenty of 1/16 and 3/32 oz.
go to barlows , they may have that hookQuote:

Thank you I sent them an email for an order. :)
If it rains like they're saying I really need to do a hook inventory. I have a bunch of Mats left that are good ones.
Don't think a lot of them are still around, you should be happy to have them IMHO! I still hold a small hope for someone to buy that part of that business and start making them again!Quote:

Lately I’ve been using some in #8 that look about the same in black chrome that I’m happy with. All that I’m using don’t let me down when it comes time to set the hook and have them hold on. My advice is to try some of the others and keep track of whose they are and where you got them from. I guarantee that if you don’t, when the time comes to reorder you’ll scratch a bald spot on your head. We all forget.
Barlows tackle still has some Matzuo hooks in stock depending on what size your looking for.
