No, but I've used the gamagaktsu or what ever EWG 3/0 super line hooks. They are pretty dang good. Only issue is the line slipping out of the eye.

haven't had any experience with vmc but i love gamakatsu EWG super line 3/0 hooks! along with trokar... but trokar is a little expensive, i only get trokar when they are on sale.

Four replies and only one is relevant to the original questions.
I'm not a product pusher like most of these guys. I have NO affiliation with any company. I try anything I can get my hands on and VMC is the only brand of hooks I use now with the exception of drop shot and wacky. I believe they are the best value out there. Never had a problem with them

Anyone ever try the widegap heavy duty worm hooks wonderinsg the pros and cons? I use them. Seem to have a good hook up ratio, better than some other ones I've used. I don't really have any cons. I also have some of the wide gap hooks they have for drop shot. I haven't had an occasion to try them yet.

Never had a problem with them when it comes to hooks I use whatever works for that situation. I have Gama, Trokar, VMC, Owner, RI,Mustad and Academy brand hooks in the boat right now.

Hope you don't think I was bad mouthing you....you actually gave an answer to the question he was asking. You're one of the few on here that I actually put value to what you recommend.

I appreciate that but I have recciomended my share of duds too.....LOL...actually the VMCs are a tad cheaper so I started using them and so far I cannot say one bad word about them. They make some good EWGs too.

I replaced trokars with the VMC flipping hooks. They work great for me
