Default Fine wire hooks

After a 4yr break i'm finding all my local waters are all barbless hooks these days (leaving me with loads of barbed hooks).

The problem I'm having is I'm struggling to find some decent fine wire hooks in barbless, everything seems to be extra strong carp and or wide gape, I dont want or need either.
Can someone please point me in the right direction to find some fine wire long shank round and crystal bend hooks, in sizes 18, 20, 22, 24 & 26 or does no-one make them anymore?

I love the Kamasan B511s...but they're not long shanked. Might be worth a look at though

PS ... you could always nip the bark with pincers. Works fine for me
