Hi Rick: you need to check your typing as you are missing the “m” in company and you have an extra “o”, also the price is per 100 and not 1000. These are probably made in China as are Mustad. I prefer the premium Japanese made hooks as I have experienced light wire hooks that have straightened out resulting in lost fish. Maruto are a Japanese brand that I like but most of my small chironomid flies are now tied on the stronger Daiichi hooks.
I realise that you are fishing for bluegills and crappie so one would not need extra strong hooks.
