Problem I found with the VMC hooks was that they dulled pretty fast when I used them on rigged eels, and they were impossible to sharpen. The Mustad plated hooks were good, easy to sharpen. They would rust a bit but not important on riggies. On plugs they rust at about the same rate as the VMC trebles that are on the lure.
On riggies I've been using Owner Siwash for 5 or 6 years with very good results. They are super sharp and can be touched up with moderate effort. They'll eventually rust, but I've yet to throw one away due to rust. They are very pricey.
