Default Vision Hooks and swivels

Bill and I have used mostly vision hooks and swivels all year for chinook and steelhead bait fishing and have yet to break one hook. Just my observation.
The swivels are tops in our book. Bill just bought some more.
Is there anywhere you can buy them in bulk? Does G.I. Joes carry them?

Default Re: Vision Hooks and swivels

Jen, someone posted on another BB that I was now a Vision rep because Vision VP Superfly Joe and rep SAUKit Justin have been showing me some NW Washington rivers in the Vision driftboat. I'm not a Vision rep. But I sure did have fun hooking several steelhead on their size 1 steelie hook on Wednesday on the 'Nooch. I had one wrap around a submerged branch and immediately snap the 10# line, so the sharp hook held strong against that quick hard pressure. Ya, they are good hooks at an excellant price. - RT

Hey Jen,
We have been trying to get them into Joe's for along time now without any success. I have even had buyers from other stores tell there buyer how well they do with them, but he still won't budge. So we are working our buts off trying to get them in every other store around. We had a couple months of down time because of the changes that took place, (all for the better)But we are back at it again and are increasing our product line and stores monthly. As for buying in bulk e-mail me and we will see what we can work out.
Thanks for the support!!!!!!!
Superfly

Im a having a hard time finding Vision stuff too. I guess Im going to have to hound Dan Dee sales in Sweet Home some more. I still have some hooks but I need more swivels. The prices are right and the quality is excellent.....
