Korda wide gapes, then Fox series 2's

IMHO Were these not just a very close copy to the 'original wide gape' - the Mainline connection Iseema range, those that can remember them.
These were very good hooks, had a load off Big Stevie back in the day.

I used the fox series 2 for quite a while prior to the wide gapes, finer gauge than a wide gape and I think the shark was a bit shorter.

The original wide gapes were a little heavier gauge than the fox, bit stronger, brilliant sharp hooks

I can remember Platil line as well.
We had the choice of Maxima, Bayer Perlon, Sylcast or Platil.
