Stainless Hooks
So I may get ridiculed for this, but I figured you fine folks would be able to answer this for me.
Last year when I was down, I managed to get myself hooked. No....literally, a hook through my finger. Anyways, my wife, with her infinite humor, decided to buy me a bracelet that had a 3/0 circle hook as the clasp to "commemorate" the experience!
Flash forward to today.... Low and behold, my arm has rubbed off the coating on the hook, and it has started rusting. So I am looking for a replacement hook, one that is made from SS or TI, so that this one will last.
So.....any help that could be given would be great. Thanks!!!"Yes I am a pirate, 200 years too late" - JB

Stainless hooks are verboten down here because they won't rust out of a fish's mouth, but you can order them online. Try Jann's Netcraft or Lure Parts as they use them up north.
People are shocked to see sharks in the water around here.
If you see natural water taste it. If it's salty it has sharks in it. If it's fresh it has alligators in it. If it's brackish it has both.

Well, after several hours making phone calls, I was able to track down a certain manufacturer’s service center in California. Thankfully, they agreed to send out my needed parts. These were left over...
You would think I would know this!
