The gamis are ok but the octopus hooks are way to thin for me and tear thru the eel to fast, The mustads are just a perfect eel hook in size, length etc..And it only takes a second or two to sharpen them to a razor point. The gamis come out of the package very sharp but, hit a rock with it once and you need to re-sharpen anyway??

No,IM not joking!I'll recycle all of my hook's when givein the chance.After a use I'll inspect my hook & leader if the leader is frayed I will cut it off & re ty the same hook,but if it's good I'll wash the hook & leader off when washing my gear.Sometimes I'll have a hook w/ some rust on it I'll soak it or them in warm water & dishsoap after a while it's brand new.
I'll buy in the 25 count Gamakatsu 5/0 live bait HD's. I don't know if that's what you concider bulk size,but it's big enough for me.I'll bet an Octopus would tear right through an eel I have felt that it would so I have never tried,I tend to that style only on chunk's.
Again nice pic & thank's for sharing.
