I use them on this spook down in Mexico where I can catch 25 over 5 lbs. each day. Over the 25 years of testing them down there, less fish have been lost on the Tripple Grips.

I think you will miss fish that slap at the bait. So you use regular hooks? I have never thought about using anything other than triple grips. usually ill bend them to be slightly of centered from the shank. Have you noticed a change in strike to hooking ratio?
