hey Dan,

I don't have any communication with the mfgr. of the baits so I don't really know if they will ever be available in the US. I did get an email from someone with this link that shows the baits on a Japanese language site

I looked at the baits to see about turning the screw eye but I'm reluctant to do it because the clear epoxy coating on the bait would get cracked around the screw eyes if I turned them. I'm going to just live with the current positioning.

That is interesting to hear that other hooks position correctly when the screw eye is perpendicular to the bait. I've never noticed that on a hook before but now I want to look at some of my Japan baits.
