Bought a few packs, they look great and feel sharp. Price was good to for such a stout hook. Always have wondered if they make the H20 hooks but these are totally different than the H2- straight shanks

I stocked up on the Trokar hooks when academy had them on sale. OK I did too. That's cool and all but how does that relate to VMC hooks? Really does not add any info to the question.

I dislike the giant keeper on any hooks. To me, very overrated part of the hook. Just destroys the bait. Just my opinion.

Mark I used them a lot about 5 years ago. Then got to looking at the hook when I lost a fish and it seemed as if the points where bent. I know you throw these in all kinds of structure but found that the points roll over pretty easy. Used what I had left and switched to Mustad Ultra points and never had that problem again. Just my .02 cents.

I have seen some in a package that had bent points already.
