high-end hooks

Looks like I will be trying a bunch of new hooks this season..those new super strong owners are on they way & those eagle claw stainless siwash. I also ordered a few real high end hooks from a new company to test out this year (from emperor tackle), mainly based on a few reviews I have read here and there about them and one other fellow that raves about them. These are gold plated Stainless steel hooks. The claim is that they last up to 12X what a standard hook does and 3X longer then a plain SS hook and the gold doesn't come off even if you use pliers on it. They also claim they are not that expensive compared to regular ss hooks ...but they are. I hope to tie some flies and droppers/teasers with them as a test.

I also picked up a couple of their plugs that look like they will work great on the albi/bone/blue bite out at the hooter next year and they have gold plated SS trebles....we will see how they hold up. I just bought a couple as these are pricey too.

How come no one makes Titainium hooks?



Only the best for my fishing ....now pass me a can of miller-lite

Will post how I think they work out next season....
