DonO and List,

What's wrong w/the Tiemco size 32 hooks? I have a package, unopened, around here somewhere. I got the pack at a local Orivs shop and I know I didn't pay that much for them. I got them as a gag for showing my club that I have small hooks as I used to only tie on hooks bigger than size 10.

Reuven,

The guy in NJ had two boxes left, and he was offering them for $150 (box of
100).  Deb and I split a box.

Other than these, I've not been able to find any anywhere.  If you can find
people that will part with them, they usually want $3 to $5 each.

I know I'd trade a bunch of them for an Emporer Penguin pelt.
