I've broken a couple using them on big hooks.
If I was younger, I'd do one of these Vise grip ones for big hooks.

Frasier: Niles, I’ve just had the most marvelous idea for a website! People will post their opinions, cheeky bon mots, and insights, and others will reply in kind!

Niles: You have met “people”, haven’t you?

might be going down this road..... like that

Ross, I use a Thompson "C" vise. Works fine for up to 6/0. I don't tie any bigger. Most of what I tie are teasers on up to 3/0 and tail hooks which are 5/0 and 6/0 VMC Siwash. This vise handles then fine.

No boat, back in the suds.
