You can get the gami octopus in boxes of 100 for about $35. Thats pretty much all I've ever used for eels and chunks. I like to snell all of my hooks, so the turned back eye on the octopus hooks helps facilitate the snell knot and the ability to snug it down. With the snell knot you get a good direct pull on the hook shank.
As for breakage, I've gone through thousands of these hooks and I believe I've had exactly one break in 15 or so years using them.
