I'm another victom of straightened hooks. I had what I think was a large bass hit my yella polaris. It was a violent hit and on the end of the cast using 25#mono. I only had'em on 6 or 7 seconds... it was all drag, after inspecting it, the first treble had one of the hooks semi straight and one on the rear was straight back. I'll never be certain but I think it was a combination of the drag being a bit to tight and one or both hooks being foul hooked. When it first happen I remember thinking the bass could have straightened the hooks against a rock but the more I thought the circumstances,, I doubt it now. Funny I can still remember my knee's shakin when that happen.
