I don't buy the story about steel hooks "magically" rusting out if they break off in a fish's mouth. A fish will rub it off on a rock or simply die with any hook in its mouth. Tinned VMC hooks are "corrosion resistant"... Do you know what that means?? it's designed TO NOT RUST.

We can all make up excuses that justify that catch and release fishing is totally humane but it isn't. You're ripping lips and injuring fish for your enjoyment and it isn't going to make much of a difference if you use a tinned hook over a stainless hook.
