depending on the size of the fish you are fishing for and the snags i have been using
Drennan Specialist Wide Gapes and had fish up to upper 20's without a problem.
not in the least bit fashionable and shiny but doesnt appear to bother the fish.
Or give Bank Tackle a look, Size 6 chods are what i would call on the large size but decent out of the packet and sharpen well

Muggas in a 4 for Ronnie generally at the moment, very interested to try the ESP Trighammer now though.

Rigworx carp tackle have a decent range of hooks, slightly thicker gauge than you get with the big brands but I've never had one bend out or break, and they're as good as IB and JP with a little rub up with a file!

I do agree they are sharp and very good, but on one lake i fish has a lot of gravel and it dont take long to turn over the points on sharpened hooks in general, i decided in the end to stick with hooks out of the packet as it were as i felt they got turned over a lot less and were therefore more likely to hook the fish . Straight out the packet i like atomics or gardner mostly as others have said they are quite resililiant.

The esp trig hammers are seriously sharp for a hook straight out of the packet.

They're a one fish hook for me Chuffy. Great hooks, but not what the OP is after imo.
