I've been looking at streamers in several different places in books and
on the web. I'm wondering what the general consensus is as to using
down eyes or straight eyes for the hooks. It seems it is a bit
difficult to find/afford some of the straight-eyed streamer hooks. Well
maybe not totally out of line, but it seems strange to pay a couple
dollars more for 25 TMC/Tiemco 8089's as opposed to a similar(R74-9672)
mustad hook with a down eye. (Seems to be the general pricing trend)
Is it a case of paying for something better or just pricing to take
advantage of what the market will bear?
Anybody here have any thoughts/reasons for choosing down eye or
straight eye hooks for streamers?
I just thought I'd tie a box full of Woolly Buggers while listening to
the Rangers on the radio, and noticed I had very few hooks with straight
eyes and 4X long.
