I did not have problems with ripped lips that I noticed, my problem was with one particular fish that bent a hook sideways on a 3 oz. bucktail jig and got off.
The question that will always be unanswered is, did I have a "very good" fish on, or just a "good" fish that was able to hook around a rock and turn enough to bend the hook or get sideways in current ect, ??
