I have been cutting VMC's for years without a breaking problem (Springer - with a metal nipper tool you can get at HD called a dike). Corrosion? Hell yeah. Just change the gd things.

BUT...I have found that a cut hook to a hard point (not a swivel) on a plug (esp my favorite, Mambo Minnows) allows for the fish to get leverage and bend the hook, or worse, the hard point on the lure. I have lost hooks to find the hard point, not the hook, gave way.
