I've used Gamakatsu hooks for a few years, and I've had zero problems. I've looked at the Trokar hooks, and find it very difficult to pay three times as much as my Gammies.

O. Mustad & Son A.S. is the world's leading manufacturer of fish hooks  ;)

Owners and Gammy's for me.  Although, several of the jigs I use have Mustad hooks in them and they have held up very well.

I use different hooks from different manufactures that work best for me. Say treble hooks for example? Cranks or topwater that are on lighter line I use Daiichi death traps. Now heavy line or larger baits nothing beats Owners. I admit to buying a lot of expensive baits and tackle but those Trokar hooks aren't worth what they are charging.

I've been messing around with those Trokars and I have to say I have never seen a sharper hook. The weight of a 3/4 oz jig put that hook point into the side of my thumb by weight alone.   I have fished X points(one of the best), Owner, Gamies, Mustad, and others. There are alot of great hooks on the market and most will do what we expect. There are pros and cons with each hook imo. You have to search for what fits your style the best.

I generally dont rip on companies, but I will not waste $ on those BPS XPS hooks again.   :-X

You forgot to add a category: Other

I have started using H2O hooks, by academy sports. They are just as sharp as the others and just as strong.

I've used Gammy hooks for more than a few years though. ;)

I fish all different brands of hooks, I prefer Gammies or Owners but I also fish some BPS hooks, Mustad, and Hookerz Tackle.  For the price, the Hookerz hooks are wonderful, I really like them and will be making other orders.  I chose Owner because of the Mosquito hooks and Stinger trebles.

I really like what Hookerz has going too.  I didn't expect that kind of quality for such a good price.

I chose Owners.  Super sharp and extra strong.

Depends on the actual hook.  Owners for the most part.  I also like VMC trebles, when I can't find Stingers.  The Gamakatsu Split Shot/Drop Shot hooks in #1 are the best I've found for this.  So are their Wide Gap Finess in 1/0 for Senkos.

Trokars are made by Eagle Claw. Owners are my favorite, I used Gamakatsus until the points started bending too often.

I would have voted other, because I've been spending the money on Owners, but for almost half the price, the Moaners are a much better value, and great quality. Exactly what I need to feed my need. Gammy and Mustad are good, too.

I doubt it. They may be marketed under the same umbrella,

but I suspect they are manufactured independently.

Right on. They suck eggs through a straw.

Mustad, Gamakatsu and Owner, I like the owner "J" hook in 1/0 and 5/0 almost all my specialized hooks are owner like weed less wacky, sled head, shakey head, I like Gamakatu EWG in 2/0 3/0 superline 4/0 Superline and 5/0 and mustad 37177 in 2/0 to4/0 those are little bit larger from the point to the eye and give more space for short strikes!

I've been using Gamakatsu octopus circle hooks, and love them. I also have been experimenting with BOSS shakey heads, which have mustads on them, and I think the hooks are pretty darn sharp. I may experiment with Owner since so many of you seem to love them.  ;)

Owners.   They come sharp, and stay sharp, fish after fish after fish.

Owner, Gammy, then Mustad
