What's your go to treble hooks for replacing the stock trebles that come on your crank baits? I've been using Mustad KVD triple grips for years. Had a brand new one break on a nice bass this past weekend. Probably an isolated incident, but made me think that I should at least "test the waters" for something different.

Those mustards are good. I like gamakatsu ewg trebles. Depending on the type of crank, I’ll put a short shank on front

I vote for Owners too. Take a pair of needle nose pliers and flex the wire on a variety of hooks. The Owner hooks are the stiffest wire for the diameter out of all of them, worm hooks included.

I prefer Owners but I have a big box of replacement trebles with Gamakatsu, Mustad and owner. Most all of them are Better than stock/dull hooks but I prefer Owner overall.

I prefer the Mustad 2x to 4x depending on the size of bait, or on Crankbaits I use the round bend. They don't seem to break as easy as the KVD but will bend if snagged on a log. I just use heavy line so a gentle tug on them will bend them free. I try to only ben them back one time and replace just because I feel it weakens them. They're a little shorter allowing me to add a bigger hook.

Wow no one mentioned anything about Trokar hooks. According to them they are they have the sharpest hooks in the industry.

Trokar hooks are sharp; but with moving baits, they can cut, tear, and rip more than others instead of a deep, piercing puncture.
I do like their finesse hooks, especially their Neko, drop shot, and wacky rig style hooks.
