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.

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.

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.

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.
