LOL. John, you asked this same question 2 years ago. Did you run out of the ones you bought off of e-bay I told you about? They had some on there a few months ago, but don't think they are on there anymore. Only other place I know of is NISID. Here's a link to their site--->  NISID (http://nisid.com/Catalog/default.aspx?category=Ice+Fishing)  They are located in the state of Washington.

Just contact them (NISID) and they will probably get back to you. I run the line thru hole, grab the end of line and twist so it creates a loop in the middle about 2 inches up, put the loop thru hook and pull tight, repeat X2 and trim off the end. Reading back it seems a little complicated but once you see it, it is easy. Maybe NISID has some pics? This is a great system as you don't have to adjust the angle of hook after a bite or hook up. It always goes back to the proper fishing position.

Terry - you said you put a loop in the line, then put the loop through the hook - did you mean the hook through the loop??  I've played with the snell knot on my mormyshkas, but it's tricky to tie and I was not happy with the results - your method sounds easier! 

BTW - finess plastic (wedgee) style tails are KILLER on mormyshka jigs....

Yeah OK. But you don't touch the loop, you just put the hook thru the loop and pull the end of line tight, then repeat twice. ;D
