Gamakatsu SL12S Big Game Wide Gap Fly Hooks 6/0
Fishypieter replied to Fishypieter's topic in The Fly Tying Bench
Unfortunately there is no hook equivalent to the Gama's that is available in bulk ie. 100 per box in South Africa. I can get the owner hooks, but only in packets which is a crazy price We use these hooks for Giant Travelle and other nasty fish in our oceans. We do have a distributor of Gamakatzu in South Africa. Stock seems to be a problem as we battle to obtain hooks in bulk from them. -

Them folks make every thing, don't they? Have you ever done business with them? I order from a few companies in China. I get most of my hooks and some fly tying materials form the first 2 companies on the list. Good quality and good price.

Do you have a web address for Bestco as a search on Google does not show anything.
