Have you guys ever seen a hook like this before? Any idea where you would buy these things?

I cannot for the life of me figure out to get the pictures to show up in the posts. I'm adding the pictures to the gallery. I'm clicking the "insert image" button, and I'm inserting the hyperlinks in between the brackets just the instructions say to do. But for some reason they don't show up for me.  >:(


Hell the hyperlinks may not even work for that matter. If y'all can't see them, they should be in my gallery. But I may have screwed that up too....

Go to Gallery and find the photo.
Right clip on the image you want to use.
Click "copy image address".
In "post" click on the "insert image" icon
Then click in between the ] and [ and right click and past (the image address).

Looks like a 60° jig hook that someone has opened up the eye ? Just a guess Berto3511. Did you find it in a fish?

Well....it's kinda funny you asked. I actually bought a rather popular production bait. I don't really want to say the name, but it's a vibrating jig bait. I'm sure y'all can put two and two together. Anyway, I wanted to see what type of hook they used so that I could reverse engineer it and try to make my own version of it. I've made several baits of that style, but I've always had to use split rings to attach the blade. And I wanted to see what type of hook they used so that I could attach the blade directly to the hook.
 
You're right, I've opened the eye myself. But the bend is what I was most curious about.
