My thoughts are the plugs are gonna take a beating just the same....they will suffer hook rash no matter what hooks you use. What are you going to do put "dull" hooks on your plugs? Plugs with Mustads suffer the same exact damage though it may take a tad longer......or does it? If you catch alot of fish on a plug its going to happen. They are made of wood after all and they are not going to last forever!
Caught way over 100 fish on this plug (way over) been abusing this plug for 3 seasons and I just retired it but I could have kept fishing it until I lost it....... it will still catch!
