Looking at these for my ronnies but been seeing people say they are weak and turn over easily ?

I brought a pack and they come up a size bigger than the Muggas I use for Ronnies, don't seem as sharp as a Mugga imo it not actually fished with them yet. Muggas do the job for me so will be sticking with these.

I have used size 5 on ronnies and size 6 for bottom baits. They do have a long thin point. I have only had the points turn over after a fish and I haven't lost a fish on them yet.

Size 4s for me with simple blowback rigs, nice and sharp from packet...i change after each fish as points do turnover quite alot.
Not had any bend out , and hookholds have been good...

Had all my fish this summer on them. All great hook holds. Fish up to 34lb and some scraps in weed and lillies.

Size 4s

Impressed but some QC issues with the odd one looking like the coating has issues. Almost like it's not been coated properly.

used these for a while now. they are more of a one fish hook though.
I just use my hook sharpener to re do the point if they roll.
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
