Hooks for tying?

I have been making teasers and bucktails a for a number of years and use either vmc siawash or mustads, the same ones i use for red gills. What is a good hook to make a variety of striper flies on? I would think the mustads would be a better bet being thinner and having a smaller eye. Ive straightened quite a few using them on red gills but dont think i would have that problem on a fly rod. Any help would be appreciated, going to try fly fishin this year for the first time and tying is a good way to burn through a few days before the season is here.

Everything is better on the rocks.
