Location: oswego, il | I am looking to buy some of these. By far the best hooks I have seen. They are a short shank round bend. They don't even need sharpened. Does anyone know who makes them and where.they can be purchased? |

| There are alot of different black nickel hooks out there.
We would need a picture to know what brand you are after.
I like VMC 8650BN |

| Best hook ever is the Owner ST-36 but they are 3/0 max, but they are truly awesome. |

Location: oswego, il | I will try and post a.picture. I have a bucket baby depth raider with them on it and some other baits too. I think the biggest I have seen is 3/0. Similar shape to the mustad short shank round bend. These are pure black. |

Location: South shore of Lake St. Clair | Try emailing the lure manufacturer on the size and brand of hook.
I always get a quick response when I do this. |

Location: oswego, il | Steve, those are not them. Hook bend is 100% round. The Bucher bait is the only of its kind I have with those hooks. I have some others too even bought a 5 dollar sale bait at bass pro with them on it. When I get home will post a pic. These hooks just seem to pin the fish and keep them pinned. |

One of these may be it, the Gamakatsu image is better. |

Location: Lake County Illinois | If I recall correctly those hooks were made by VMC specifically for Bucher tackle. |

Location: oswego, il | Here is the hook. Appears to be the same hook on the storm baits too. Steve these look like the ones in your last links. Thanks a bunch for the help.

Location: North Metro, MN | Todd- those look like the VMC Cone Cut hooks in Black Nickel. Many places sell the VMC Cone Cuts but I have only found the black nickel ones from LPO. They are awesome! I use them for my sucker rigs and bucktails mostly. They are super sharp ready to go. Someone did mention the Owner st-36 earlier, that's prob not it but in my opinion, by far the sharpest and best black nickel hooks, but they are expensive and hard to find in Musky sizes. |
