| Rigging needles - who's got em????
Damn it, I cant locate my few rigging needles I had, so who nearby (Mission Bay area) carries these?? They have to have a notched (eye) on the end just like a sewing needle only larger.......... who sells them locally???
Anybody know??
Thanks in advance.

Just curious though, do your Topshot rigging needles have the hole at the top like a sewing needle?

Damn what are these things, limited edition gold rigging needles, and are they now wrapping these little things with mini tigerwraps and then having Matt (Fishpainter) paint a little picture on them..... Holy cow thats some big dough for a little piece of metal!
Man, the rigging needles I use to use were nothing more than a simple little piece of thin metal with a hole on top, and cost next to nothing.

Alright, I picked some up from Joey at Squidco. They are not exactly what I was looking for, but I should be able to make them work. I need the kind with a slot at the top and that is notched.
