I'd stickwith the VMC 4X. You can go with the 6X but the benefit isn't worth the price. Some complain about hooks bending but when you use 65lb an 80 lb braid with the drag so tight ,well most hooks will bend. Your fishing for stripers use the 4X VMC if your going for lg Tuna well try the the 6X.I've had tuna to 127 lb an Rooster fish over 60lb landed on my plugs with the 4X VMC and not bend them. As far as that discoloration on them after a few fish,well check the point. They do stay sharp.I have VMC s that are the same hook labeled 3x an 4x. I called and asked an was told they.re the same hook.
