Dragon Troller Posted April 23, 2018 Share Posted April 23, 2018 Hello Folks, I am writing this post to request your assistance in identifying the gold hooks in the pictures attached. The bronze hook is a Mustad 9671 #2 for reference. If anyone knows, or can give me some information which might enable me to find out, it would be much appreciated. They appear to be 2X long and perhaps 2X heavy as well? They look like Mustad's to me, but they may be a different brand. Any Ideas? Thanks for any input Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Dell Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 Limerick bend distinguishes them from the 9671s. A possibility is the Mustad 7970? But the ones I have are bronzed. Mine are labelled 5X strong. And the Limerick bend is a little more pronounced. I will take a pic of these to post, and continue looking at my old hooks.

Dragon Troller Posted April 24, 2018 Author Share Posted April 24, 2018 Thanks Michael, I think they are close to the 7970, but they seem to be lighter with a less pronounce bend, I have an old Mustad sample book and they are close but no cigar! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragon Troller Posted May 6, 2018 Author Share Posted May 6, 2018 Thanks to a tip from and eBay shopper I have determined these hooks to be Eagle Claw 1197G hooks. FYI Thanks for looking if you did. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
