Any shop that has a decent offshore fishing section should have them.

If you have plug through wire you can make one in about 3 min...

I've bought a few different ones. The one I made from a coat hanger is the best I've found.

Are you talking a rigging needle for eels? If yes

Cut the straight sectipn off a coat hanger. Hammer one end plat for about 1/2 an inch. drill a hole in the flattened section , using sandpaper or a grainding wheel , grind the other end to a sharp tip. In fact , it can be too sharp. You want it to go through the eels inner canal , not through the meet so say medium sharp.
