Super User Tin Posted October 24, 2007 Super User Posted October 24, 2007 I have been having problems with owner hooks lately. The hooks pretty much fall out once you take pressure off the fish. The ones I have gotten in the boat have a huge tare where the hook WAS (because they always fall off when I flip them in the boat). And I know the tare isnt because of the hookset because I have gone over to 17 lbs. flouro, instead of 30 pound power pro, and went down from a heavy to medium heavy rod. And I'll still bend out a Gamakatsu hook with the 17 lbs and Medium Heavy rod. So it seems like mustad is my last option. Any input? Quote
Super User Bassin_Fin@tic Posted October 24, 2007 Super User Posted October 24, 2007 Sorry,never had that prob with owner.Once I get one on those they never get off.Maybe some of these knowledgable folks here may have had that problem too.I just know though that I cant stand katsu and only use them for a few things.The points always bend on gammies and go dull, and I can go through a whole pack like water somedays.Can ruin a gammy just by sticking a fish in the boney upper jaw.
