Anyone tried these yet ? A couple of guys here in the U.S. have done well on them, simple knotless knot hiar rig.
They are reporting good hook holds and no dropped fish.
Any thoughts/comments ?

I mentioned them on here recently and I'm sure someone replied they blunt very easily.

EDIT, it was Braders, post 1300 OMC thread

If its the lock hooks don't bother,the points blunt too easily

I don't know about you Dave, but I couldn't bring myself to buy anything that puts money in Ali's coffers after the way he spoke to us on that video call?
If you like the look of these Loc hooks I think something along the lines of a Nash Twister would be as good or better.

The blokes a complete clown. Everything they have brought out so far looks crap.

They look like what the company should be called.

One More Gimmick.
