This year Massachusetts has banned the use of lead under one ounce. I have a bag of 100 jig head hooks that I will give to the first person who requests them. They are 1/80 oz on a size 10 hook. The hook is soft and with a flattened barb is great for working submerged obstacles for fish. The style allows for fewer snags and if you do snags just pull slowly and the hook will bend and come out, just rebend and continue fishing. I have attached some pictures of some of the flies I have tied on them. I will pay the shipping in the US to whoever requests them. I only ask that if you could, make a donation to the Forum through PayPal at:

I was at my bench tying this morning and came across a bunch more of the jig head hooks. Another two bags of at least 100 1/80 oz, a half bag of 1/124 oz all nickel plated and a bunch at least 100 in black. As noted above my state has banned lead so if anyone want these they are free for the taking.

I'll put them to use and make a donation to the forum if they aren't spoken for.
