looking for 11/0 hooks or larger.

I got some custom made water dogs that are about 6'' long and need some wide gap hooks that are 11/0 or bigger for large bass and pike. Any help would be nice.

What? Why would you need that big for those? Especially in New Mexico... Sometimes Smaller gives a better thrill!!

Biggest one I know of is a 12/0 made by Picasso or Tru-Tungsten (same company Fish Harder Companies) to go in an Ish Tube.

Hmm. 11/0 ? I don't think that would be the right size for a 6"
I'd go with either a 4/0 or 5/0 for that type of rig.
I don't even think they make 11/0 wide gaps for bass, but I may be wrong *edited *
yes they do make 11/0 but not for bass,
for big game like Tuna

I would try lebarons ...and big hooks arent always the best option...you think that your hooking % will go up but it actually will go down..smaller hooks fit in there mouths alot easier..easier to penetrate the flesh too as a smaller point will create the most pressure per area.over the yrs I found the smaller the hooks the easier it is to hook em..but remeber big fish can straighten a small hook if you horse the fish in..find a good med when picking hooks and try some red hooks and notice if you get more strikes...
fish on...

Bass Pro Shops has some 10/0 swimbait hooks on clearance. Just go to their website and click on the clearance tab. I saw at least 3 different brands.

I've seen circle hooks up to 18/0 on eBay, I think they were for Tuna. I rarely go above 3/0, think the biggest I ever went was 7/0.
