If i dont get stuck at least few times while changing hooks out they just are not sharp enough for me.

I know guys that say that if you're  not afraid of handling your broadheads when bowhunting that they aren't sharp enough😉.

Similar principle.

I tried those Hayabusa's last year and was less than impressed, they just didnt seem sticky at all. If i dont get stuck at least few times while changing hooks out they just are not sharp enough for me.

Tackle warehouse shows Daiitchi Death traps, ive always been a fan of those too

I was once able to find them in bulk packs of 100 but no longer. They're really expensive by the 5-pack but probably still worth the price.

Good to know, 1farmer. Where do you procure these Hayabusa hooks? 

Make a wake bait and tackle between alma and Van Buren, Ar has them. They are also available at tackle warehouse.

I seemed to have some more success with using red hooks on the front of my jerkbaits for brown trout. Using red hooks (either trebles or single EWG hooks with plastics) for bass didn't seem to make a noticeable difference.

All is well here Champ. Hope you and Donna are doing well on the water and the links.

Not a fan of the red ones myself either, Arch.

I really only use Owner (Stingers) or Gammy (round bend or EWG) replacement trebles. They are as sharp as you can get, don't bend out and I've never had an issue with corrosion. The KVD Mustads are also acceptable. All are a quality hook.

Not a fan of VMC, cheap Eagle Claw or some of the other brands.

Trokars are nice but too rich for my blood.

Heard that Berkley fusion trebles are good for the money but I've not tried them myself.
