Hi all,

Looking for Mustad 3907A or 3907B in #2 and #4 if someone has any they want to part with. Thanks in advance! Josh

Josh,

I'm headed up to The Classic Fly Fisherman to hang out with the boys and have a little lunch with them.

I'll root through the streamer hook drawer to see what I can find. I'll get back to you with any results.

George

Thanks George!!

[Classic Salmon Fly Tyer]

No problem...do you have a working budget?

[Classic Salmon Fly Tyer]

Josh,

 

Sorry to say no 3907 A's or B's in the sizes you need. Only 6,8 & 10. He did have 94720 in size 4, but they are only 8X long...not the 9X of the other model.

Thanks anyway George. Appreciate you looking for me. For future reference I would be willing to purchase an entire box if available and the price is not astronomical or by the hook if some one just has a few to sell. Also in the market for Allcock streamer hooks in larger sizes if someone has those for sale

Bob (owner of the shop) is always dirt cheap for the hooks he gets when buying estates, etc. He doesn't put those little things on his web site, but there is always a lot of stuff to look through and it is great fun. His specialty in the business is collectible rods, reels, etc. Primo stuff too!!

 

Let me put it this way...the first time I walked into his place I noticed the smell of the moth balls, the table with 4 chairs in the middle of the shop and I said to myself...oh yea...my kind of fly shop!!

 

By the way those 94720's...there were 2 small plastic bags totaling maybe 150 hooks or more...$6.00 per bag.

 

I'll keep you in mind...you never know.

[JoshP]

Next time in you're in there and if he still has the 94720's, I'll take them. Sounds like a good deal to me!

[Classic Salmon Fly Tyer]

When I get the hooks I'll be in touch. Obviously I will need your mailing address which I'll get via a PM. Do you have PayPal?

[JoshP]

Sure do George. Send me a total and a lll send you some funds. Thanks!

[Classic Salmon Fly Tyer]

Josh - Just wanted you to know I haven't forgotten you Crazy week this week...but if things go as planned I'll get to Bob's on Wednesday - George

[JoshP]

Sounds round George. Thanks!

[Classic Salmon Fly Tyer]

Okay Josh...here is what I have. $16.00 worth of hooks (2 at $6 and 1 at $4) No money out of my pocket yet. If you want them then I will pay Bob. If not I simply return them. The joys of dealing with a friend.

Shipping is up to you...but for instance priority mail small flat rate box $7.40...making your total $23.40.

George
