Hooks is one of the things you don't wanna try to save money with. Gamakatsu, owner, and the lighter wire trokars. Wouldnt use much else.

I can't speak to the Trokar but Definitely a fan of Gams and Owners. +1 on buying in bulk.

I have been using VMCs the last year and very happy with them. They cost a bit less than most and have had no issues. Their EWGs and their flipping hooks are excellent.

very surprised with the VMC finesse EWG hooks I bought recently. I didnt notice until I went to tie one on.... they use a sealer at the hook eye to keep line chaffing obsolete. On 6# test, that is very important! pretty impressed with them.
always been a gamakatsu and owner fan. VMC is climbing up the ranks.
