I have seen a couple of articles showing a weedless hook caled the timberhook, it has a couple of fine wire strands that cover the tip, anybody seen or used these yet?

May your bait be ever so lively,<'{{{{{>>{

I was looking all over for them before opener with no luck so one day I stopped in at Lindy Little Joe and asked where they were available. I was told they won't be shipped to retailers until the first of August. This could have changed but I haven't seen any here in the Brainerd area yet so I doubt if they are out there yet. Looks like the perfect hook with a pegged bullet sinker for a few weedlines I'm always trying to sneek into. Good luck...Skeeter Boy

The hooks are made by Stinger Tackle (Greg Bohn), out of Minocqua, Wisconsin. From what I understand, Stinger and Lindy coupled up for this rig. You might want to contact Greg's shop, Strictly Walleye, in Minocqua and see if they have them in stock.

Best Regards,

I also heard Stinger went w/ Lindy to make this. I saw it at a Ted Takisaki seminar. It's easy to make your owm. Just take and solder wire to a hook.
