Those Gami hooks look nice, how do they hold up? Any issues with rusting and do they hold a good point after a night of getting pulled through the rocks?
Yes, I fished them right after that pic was taken. They are actually the first 2 riggies I've ever made. The hooks are so big and heavy, they always seemed to run point down like a keel as is. The zip ties are pretty tight too. Timmah and I use gami's in all the big sluggos we make and imo they hold up better than anything else. Sharp as hell out of the package too.

yeah they are expensive and come in packs of 3 I usually fish live ones so I don't need to make many.
