Bill, no doubt Got Stryper hooks are very durable, beefy hooks! I've experimented a bunch, different manufactures and styles. RS have a thicker shank than the sluggo hooks, thinner than GS hooks but very strong and readily available. I have never straightened a RS hook. I did straighten a sluggo hook on a lobster pot. Those Got Stryper tuna worthy hooks are hefty. I fish the 12" in such a way that I like it to slowly fall/glide to the bottom on retrieve. My area is very shallow, you may benefit from such hooks as GS in deeper water. The mono wrap works. I use whatever thread (rod wrapping, fly tying...) I have available, wrap it, then super glue. But most times I super glue only as sluggos are 3 maybe 4 fish max and that head is gonna rip no matter what. That's the only downfall to using slugs. Give the RS a try, you may like them.
