jomatty Posted March 26, 2007 Posted March 26, 2007 anybody using these yet and have any feedback. they look like they would be awesome senko hooks and a good compromise between ewg and straight shank. Quote
Super User Raul Posted March 26, 2007 Super User Posted March 26, 2007 Tru Turn hooks are older than dirt, since I 'm about the same age, guess who has fished with Tru Turns ? yup, me; compared to more modern hooks like Gamakatsus, Owners, Daiichis & other brands Tru Turns are have remained stone age, they lack out of the box of something modern hooks have ---> razor sharpness, which means you have to sharpen every single one of them because out of the box their sharpness sucks. Still have TruTurns in my box, all I 'm waiting is for them to run out and NEVER PURCHASE THEM AGAIN. Quote
Avalonjohn44 Posted March 26, 2007 Posted March 26, 2007 Still have TruTurns in my box, all I 'm waiting is for them to run out and NEVER PURCHASE THEM AGAIN. LOL, me three. I hate those hooks. Quote
Super User Raul Posted March 26, 2007 Super User Posted March 26, 2007 BTW, Tru Turns are not manufactured by Owner. Quote
jomatty Posted March 27, 2007 Author Posted March 27, 2007 dont know whats wrong with me i meant to type the owner twistlock hooks. im not that old but learned long ago that tru turn did not make the cut, but apparently somewhere in my sub concious they are lingering and appearing in my posts. matt Quote
Super User Matt Fly Posted March 27, 2007 Super User Posted March 27, 2007 I have broken 3 Tru-Turns on hooksets in Cali. I also had 4 break break off with good bass on in Cali in the late 80's. All were broken in the "Turn". I gave all my Tru-Turns to my buddy who introduced me to them. Won't use them ever again. Matt Quote
Super User Raul Posted March 27, 2007 Super User Posted March 27, 2007 Been fishing that long, one thing I 've leared is that the particular design is the one that catches the most fish through the eye socket than any other hook I 've used, pretty annoying. Quote
