eBay hooks

Submitted by rails8291 on Sun, 2012-03-25 19:51

G'day guys

Does anyone know or had experience with eBay hooks from tackledirect, 10/0 chemically sharpened circle hooks bulk. Are they any good.

Ebay hooks

Sun, 2012-03-25 20:16

I use greenwave live bait hooks and the latest ones are Razor points from Escapin tackle and the only thing I could complain about is they rust up rather quickly if you have used them and not packed them away---[lazy bugger] but with any high carbon content hook you expect it.

 Strong and very sharp hook with a reasonably cheap price to go with them.

 I have bought heaps of hooks through tackle direct on eBay and never had a problem with them.

I also use greenwave and found them to be excellent... no breakages yet...

In regards to them rusting.... I couldnt give a hoot as they are cheap enough to buy...

Im buying mine in lots of about 500... for say less than $100....

Last time I bought hooks from the shop was $35 for 25!!!

I still spend money at the local shops, as Im an impulse buyer, and quite often walk out with a new rod etc... or lures!!!!  So I dont feel bad at all!!
