New Mustad trebles.

Mustad = Junk! Old/New....you can have them! And if you are using cut hooks once they hit the salt they become as brittle as late autumn leaves and will break at the cut with very little pressure. VMC for me!!!

Agreed Larry. I don't sell the plugs I make but give away a 100+ every year so I don't want a gift to fail because of the hooks. I tried new Eagle, Mustad, Owner and VMC. I have stayed with VMC 3/0 6X for the belly hook and VMC 5/0 & 6/0 Siwash for the tail.

If you have any Mustads with the Cadmium plating 3561 (closed eye) or 3517 (open Eye) I'll take all you got. IMO the best 3X treble ever - if they could hold up to Block bass they could hold anything. They went to crap when cadmium was banned as a plating.
