Has anyone tried these?
I bought a new jig mold and need to buy beefier hooks! [rolleyes]

Hillbilious,
Long time no forum chat. [flapper] Sorry, no experience with your hooks, but good to see ol' timer people on here.

Yeah, I have not been fishing for a while.
Since it's the off-season, I'm going to tie a bunch of jigs for next year.
Did you got to the WL swap meet? I was going to go, but ended up working. ](*,)

I have used the VMCs a lot in tubes and on craw baits throwing for smallmouth. They are extremely sharp and provide good hook sets. I have experienced the points dulling or becoming bent more quickly than other hooks and you have to check to mack sure that the gap has good distance and is not closing you. Hurts the hookups if the hook is bent in a bit. That being said, I would still recommend them.
