    Default Found The Brand Name Of My Old Jig Mold


    When my friend gave me this mold all those many years ago, now, he had put tape on the handles as a bit of protection from the heat, I guess. And I was reluctant to remove the tape, but I took the tape off one handle anyway, and found the world "Ament" on the inside of the handle. I assume that is the brand name. Can anyone tell me anything about it, and especially what hooks to use for the 1/32, 1/16 and 1/8 round heads? Here is a link to one exactly like mine, (except for the tape) for sale on Ebay if anyone wants to take a look.

    Eagle Claw 575 in 6, 4, and 2 according to the old Ament catalouge



    With the open bottom you should be able to use any 90 degree bend jig hook you want

    If it fits the Eagle Claw 575 hooks, you might also try the Matzuo Sickle hooks. I love them myself, as do a lot of my customers. Most of the heads I pour for folks are Matzuo hooks.
