New Mustad trebles.
Anyone try the new mustad treble hooks yet? I bought a pack of 2/0 5x the other day, they look to be the size of 3/0 VMC's. I think they were the same price as VMC's, maybe a dollar less for 25. I switched the hooks on a redfin and managed to bend the hell out of the hook on a rock with just one good pull to free it out of the weed. I wasn't fishing a very tight drag since i was into mostly smaller fish. IMO their 5x isn't as strong as the VMC 3x. Maybe it was a bad hook i can't say for sure.
