Mustad black nickel make a stout flipping hook
Gamakatsu makes another nice stout flipping hook
Trokar flipping hooks are good
Vmc another good flipping hook
When I build flipping arkie jigs I like going with sizes 3/8oz. 1/2oz . 3/4oz I have several different sizes of custom fiberguards I like use in my jigs depending on what cover im going to fish. There are several custom jig builders that im sure that could help you find what you need.

might be on to something here, I missed this one. Two things tho:

Not a hand tied skirt
&
they do not offer a Brown color

You can change the skirt easily, since it's got a rubber band, and you can get some 26 gauge gardening wire and wire the skirt in place yourself. You can even leave the twisted wire tag ends long, and bend them back along the belly toward the hook bend to act as an additional holder for your trailer.

They work for Matt Allen :D Mark is right though a bit of garden tie in front of that rubber collar and she'll be right as rain.

Handtied skirts custom powdercoating and detail to silicone skirting material and fiberguards.That production jigs don't offer. There alot of different way too tie up skirts to get the Maxx out of flare and accent colors that why I tie all my Bass jigs Spinnerbaits Buzzbaits and Chatterbaits Crappie jigs. You can have silicone skirting material made in custom colors. I have 3 or 4 custom colors made a year. I even carry jig tying material in my boat I've even tied jigs up for tournament fisherman before we fished in are tournaments on the lake.

Check out truesouthlures.com Flathead jig. also the heavier Ts-1 and Ts-2 are both fantastic hand tied jigs with excellent mustad round bend (hooks not owner jungle) but still extremely stout hooks. Hopefully this helps not exact specifications but a excellent alternative I.M.O

Mike at Siebert Outdoors makes Arkie jigs with either Owner or Tokar hooks and hand tied skirts to order.
