Do they make hooks for other companies do you know?

Very interesting - looking forward to what they have to offer. Korean manufacturing has become top notch.

Will check them out at ICAST in couple of weeks...

I checked these hooks out at I Cast. Better get them when you can. These are the best idea I have ever seen and very high quality hooks. That bait keeper system is so simple it will make you think why the hell has it not been done before. There were all kinds of top level Pros buzzing around this booth. This was the most exciting hook release that I have ever seen. These are gonna sell like crazy up here. .
