I make my own . Before I started tying , I bought teasers. A always tried to get them with a mustad Hook. dave Hammock at Murats used to make me some custom. Then I started tying my own.

I have also purchased pretied eel hooks and leaders but tend to like a bigger hook so do them myself now also.

Now I tie all my own. I even started making my own jigs about five years ago when some I bought at a tackle shop broke at the hook/lead interface. For jigs the big thing is the hook. We pay over 20 cents per hook even though we buy a lot of them. We use cad plated Mustads and try to use the biggest hook that's practical for the application.
