Muggins. Posted October 17, 2012 Report Share Posted October 17, 2012 I want to bulk buy a load of hooks, a mixture of sizes 2`s, 3`s and 4`s. Does anyone know of any websites that sell cheap ish?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ack-ack Posted October 18, 2012 Report Share Posted October 18, 2012 A mate buys in loads from hong kong via Ebay. They work out very cheap but I'm nopt convinced the quality is all that. The circle hooks he got me were quite brittle and a couple bust when I had the pliers on them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oscarsdad Posted October 18, 2012 Report Share Posted October 18, 2012 I bought some cheap off eBay - they were absolute rubbish and not worth losing a big fish to save a few pence. Stick to varivas big mouth or similar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MM Posted October 18, 2012 Report Share Posted October 18, 2012 ive done the same off ebay, and they were really good. ill have a look in the morning and see if i can fine who they are from. bought hundreds, and still use them. now im a small boat owner i might have to invest in a load more.

yod dropper Posted November 13, 2012 Report Share Posted November 13, 2012 Just want to get a load together for the beach and boat .. all sizes. They do sampler packs of 5 hooks of most sizes in each pattern. I know there would be extra postage for a second order but it does mean you can have a look at the hooks before you commit. I've been very impressed with the Rozetti Octopus LIvebait in the smaller sizes, short shank and very strong and a good price as well.
