Where can I find a rig hook?

Don’t have time to buy one and I don’t won’t to buy one on the island because it will probably be 10x the normal cost. I have tried Academy and they are sold out. Bass pro and Calebas don’t show any available online. 
Where can I look in the BR area?

Papa was u trying to get the hook off because a storm was coming Saturday? And ended up just cutting the line. If so I was next to you on a contender.. we had 9 adults and a kid on the boat so we probably stuck out. I saw a guy cut his hook off looked like it was tangled in a rope attached to the rig

make one. Use 1.5-2" pvc pipe.
Heat it and bend it to a hook. Put an eye hook on a cap and then cap both ends.
Should only take 15 min.

This is a terrible idea. Do not do this.

No sir that wasn’t us

PVC+sun+heavy boat hooked to an immovable object. That’s why it’s a terrible idea.
Hell I’ve seen bay boats bend up aluminum rig hooks, wtf do you think is gonna happen to pvc.

because you will need about 20 of them per day that you plan on fishing

Yeah, ya'll are using bigger boats than I was thinking about.
I had one that I used on a 22' bayboat that never had any problems with.
Anything bigger than 24' would be an issue.

Buy some 1" aluminum conduit and a muffler shop can make you one.

PVC isn’t a great idea. On my dads boat growing up we made one out of 1” aluminum conduit. I just don’t have the time to get my hands on one before I leave for a fishing trip.
I found one at superior bait and tackle.
Thanks fellas.

I made mine out of 1" heavy wall tubing I bent with a set of tubing benders and installed an i-bolt on the rope side.
I do not know if the material makes this idea cost prohibitive, I used a drop piece from work.
Do yourself a favor and either make or buy one with the shock absorber. I skipped this step on the first one and It will keep you from straightening the hook out in a hard chop.
