I'm not sure if this is the proper sub forum, but i'm looking to get another hook sharpener. I'm currently using a smiths diamond combo travel thingy. It works good, but it's too big. Looking for something smaller. Any ideas would be appreciated. Thanks

I use a standard round knife sharpener.  The smaller diameter ones will fit into smaller trebles and handle larger hooks as well...

I have the Dr. Slick 4" sharpener. It's just a simple flat sharpener with a slot on each side for running your hook down it. Works pretty good for me.

I have something similar, old enough I don't remember the name.
One of those pocket stones for pocket knives will work quite well, just use a light touch.

Another good one is one of the pocket diamond stones, the ones that fold closed. They don't cost much and are available in many hardware stores and some tackle stores.
