two piece hook hanger

Question
I have a Hedden Flap Tail that has the front hook hanger missing. Would you know where I could purchase one? All the two piece ones I can find are not the same. Please advise? Thank you for your reply.

Answer
Hi Calistus,

Most of those were very unique hook hangers and are not available from lure making supply houses these days.  Your best option would be to find one (Flaptail) on e-bay that is in poor condition and buy it cheap just for parts.  You may find hangers that are close from someone like Netcraft, Stamina, or Moores Lures.  But they are not going to be exact.

That is a great bait.

Good luck,

Marc
