    The hook is Daiichi 2220, 4XL Sizes 6 & 8, any
    Daiichi dealer should have them - or be able to get them for you. I'm sure there is a Mustad equivalent as well, looks like a pretty straight forward streamer hook.

    Personally, i would just bend a strong 2x long dry hook a little bit, but otherwise you might have to spend a little bit of extra money on them.
