Mustad extra wide gap has been good to me. For treble hooks I like Owner Stingers.

i have been using the Gamaktsu superline hooks and very pleased. Speakin of that- I have 1 left..thanks for reminding me...
ones I want to try-- the "Daiichi" hooks. Maybe I will buy those instead of my regular Gami's and post how they do. supposed to be super sharp- which means I get a better hookset when I am cold- cause I dont set the hook too well when I am freezin my butt off!

I have always used Gammys but I have invested a large amount of money in owner hooks and mustad hooks. So I am going to venture to some other brands. I can honestly say that Gammys are excellent hooks, just that I have heard nothing but good on these other two brands, and I came into some excellent deals on the Owner hooks and I was able to get excactly the type of hooks I wanted from Mustad.

I used Gammi EWG red hooks until 9-10# bass on Tawakoni straightened one out straight. I went back to Mustad, wish I had never left. The Gammi's were availible locally, Mustad's mean a trip to BPS.

Be surprised.... be real surprised... if you get three chunkers who give you the same choice.
Been tossing mustads too long to change now.

I guess that kinda depends on what you're fishing for, right?
I like Gamakatsu, Eagle Claw, and Owners myself.

I use only Owner for worm hooks and until recently was stuck on Excalibur for trebles. However, just bought some Sure Set trebles at Academy to test. They look awesome.

The very best fish catching hook I have ever found is a WET one.
