I have used strictly gami 7/0 octopus hooks for years now...
I tested a brand new one with pliers and mild pressure to try to bend it...
snap!
ok, try another NEW hook... SNAP
6 out of 6, from different packs, snapped like a kit-kat bar
at fat camp...
Ive never had one bend on a fish... mayb they are snapping due to the
pressure point at the tip of my pliers? just like a rod tip
will break if you flex it with your hands too close together instead of allowing
a full arc.
I still fish em, but might try the heavy in-line hooks
