Ima fan of trebles! I tried the whole single hook thing and I can't see any difference in my hook to land ratio. I've still lost fish on singles just as much, but I miss more fish with them.
I usually go with VMC's or Owner's when I change them out or make my own spinners..
Have you been able to find owner trebles WITHOUT the cutting point? Thats all I can find down here and I hate them, and just want needle pointsbut Eugene is behind the times....
and I go with trebles. Always. I don't like singles.
Pretty sure I got some ones that aren't the cutting points. They are super tough and sharp! I snagged a few rocks pretty hard and they stayed sharp!
I need to get me some. Owners are superior in every way...except for the cutting points lol. I started tying my jigs with owners.
Why do you not like the cutting points? I've heard that they burrow out the hole in the fishes mouth resulting in more lost fish. Or maybe it's the needle points that do that??? Im not sure..
Mustad ?I lost a lot of fish PERIOD this year! Especially springers!
My hook to land record is still best with those cheaper hooks you could buy at Joe's... my mind is blank and I can't think of the name. Not Gami's, not Owner's, not Eagle Claws, not Brad's but the other kind... anyone help me out?
Mustad ?
Gotta be VMC....?Nope not Mustad either... they are not too popular of a hook and are a lot cheaper than most others. SUPER sharp, but kind of brittle I guess.. They break before they bend. Chemically sharpened. I hate that I can't think of the name.
