I have a Tady C and a Tady 45 that have rusty hooks and needed help on what size hooks and rings I need to get?

For hooks, I'm planning on getting Owner Power point 4x but I have yet to decide on which brand rings to get. Any help would be greatly appreciated ;)

Also, would a soldering iron be enough for the job or would I need a torch? Thanks!

You can get replacement trebles with a cut in the eye, I think mustad makes them. Match the size to whats on the lure. Their strength is great, you will straighten the hook before the eye opens.

Seaforth Landing tackle shop sells these in small quantities. I use 6L the most.

For hooks I use Owner Stinger trebles, ST-66TN, usually 1/0 or 2/0 depending on the jig size.
