Best price on hooks

Recommended Posts

Where is the best place to buy hooks? I want to tie on barbless hooks but don't want to buy them in tiny packs that I pay a ton of money for. I would rather pay 20 bucks get a good assortment with a good range in sizes (I don't need gigantic hooks) and a good number in the pack.

Probablyl just one size is all you ordered right? I want a variety pack of different sizes and I want a good number of hooks mabe 25 of each size something like that.

I know this sucks, but it's not easy to get what you're looking for. Don't worry about barbless, just get what you can and pinch down the barbs.

Yeah like that. Thanks for the link. I will have to try the dry fly sampler pack 10 of each size for a total of 60 hooks for 11 bucks sounds like a pretty good deal.

why not try the off brand hooks like: saber, allen & co, togen, the fly shop, hook & hackle etc? theyre mostly made in the same place just a different label

 

mustad hooks at hook & hackle are usually discounted

 

check out the sampler pack in the lower right hand corner for $9.85

do some research and shop around.

Thanks for the link. By the way this would be considered research. I have looked through a lot of sites before asking here but asking here is definately part of my research. Thanks for the "advice"

Lightning strike hooks by Wapsi has some of the better Multi packs that I have seen. The link below will take you to one place that I have found them. There are other places that carry these I think. I am in agreement that this should be something that is more readily available.

I'd take the Togens deal for a 1000 mixed hooks, They're decent hooks, The only difference is they're not as dark a bronze as other brands but not a deal breaker.

It used to be you could buy hooks in bulk (say, 1000) for a fraction of the cost (per hook) you pay for smaller quantities. I have bought Mustad hooks like this and saved big bucks. Can hooks still be bought in bulk? If so, maybe those of us who are interested could make a group purchase and divide the hooks according to our needs. I would certainly be interested if we were talking about quality barbless dries or barbless wets. I wonder if this site's sponsor could give us a deal on Tiemcos or Daiichis by the thousand.
