Second gardner hooks and angling iron They are sharpe but don't go blunt after one fish. Last year I had 8 fish on one hook 👍🏻

I had a look through a pack of these. What a load of ****. Most were blunt. Typical rm *****

J precision hooks are the only hooks I use they are hand sharpened and I have never had a blunt one. They also actually last ages, get yourself a decent pillar file and you can check them after a fish and give them a little tickle if required, they end up lasting ages. Awesome hooks, great patterns.. I went round in circles for years on hooks until I found them, not used anything else in 2 years.

I've never had a problem with Gardner Muggas myself, used them for a lot of fish, and in weedy and snaggy waters where I need to put the pressure on.

My other choice of strong hook is a straight pattern, Solar 101's

Same here. Since I tried the J Precision hooks a few years ago haven't felt the need to look else where. Very good hooks, reasonably priced and good service. Seriously sharp

Atomic are probs the most resilient hooks imo.

Using ESP at the minute, classic and grippers. I am fond of the Brennan barbel hooks.

Used to use atomic, again great hooks.
