how the heck can you tell

Looking at vmc open eye siwash hooks for some jigs. Figured out the 9171 is the code for open eye siwash. Some places list as 2x, some 4x even with the same code. VMC does not even mention 2x or 4x for siwash hooks. Anyone know if they are all the same?

No, no, no. we’re 30… 30, three zero.

I think you are looking for 9171PS. Those are the 4x permasteel hooks. I do not think I would use that hook for a jig though. Are you pouring your own jigs?

That is the one i was looking at. I see them listed as 2x someplaces and 3x others. Maybe they are all the same and the stores just call them whatever they want. Going to use them on diamond and anchovy type jigs, tins, etc.
