Title: Drop shot hooks..
Post by: motocross269 on August 02, 2008, 08:27:21 PM
For you guys that use Gammie Dropshot/splitshot hooks in 1/0 make sure you check your stock..I just went to BPS, Tried ordering them thru Cabelas, Gander Mtn and Dicks and they were all out of stock....I finally found them by Calling BPS.. I ordered 100..
I gave a pack of 25 to my father in law thinking I was all set and got home and found out I was just about out...I know it is just a confidence thing, but I can't think of a fish that I have lost using the gammies and my new 7' 2" D/S rod...

Well, I like the gammies, so that's for the heads-up moto.

We must not be the only ones....Because they are GONE!!!!

I was not happy when I couldn't find any...I have a SM tourney every weekend for the next 5 weeks..

[REMOVED - see No Links Policy List (http://www.greatlakesbass.com/forum/index.php?topic=11129.0)] shows them in stock in packs of 25.

If you do ground shipping with a purchase of 50 bucks or more you dont have to pay shipping.  I usually order on Monday and get my stuff by Friday.  

Wish I had known you were needing them on Friday when I ordered, I would have added them to my order for you.

i just switched from the stand-out hooks to just a eagle #2 octopus (with a little twist in the hook portion). so far excellent results.. all fish have come to hand hooked squarely in the top of the lip and no signs of the hook coming out easily.
