Whats the big deal on these Trokar hooks?

I dont get what makes them so special.

They are surgically sharpened. They just come with a hefty tag, buy a pack and make your own decisions.

I've used them for C-rigs. No complaints, but they are pricey!

Then again I've had no complaints with run of the mill Gama's either.

Sharp, but have not been perfected yet. I've had major issues with the tips of the hook bending up after only 1-2 fish. Until I hear about no issues, I won't waste anymore money.

They are sharp as hell, and a great idea, but with the tips rolling up, not worth it.

The biggest knock against Eagle Claw Hooks has always been the point bends on hook set and I know what everyone says "Catt Trokar is a separate company and are only sold under the Eagle Claw name".

Huh a separate hook company with the same traits as the parent company

Owner and Mustad are my preferred hook.

I fish several brands, but decided to try the Trokar 5/0 EWG

on some custom made 3/4 oz GMAN Mop jigs. Just got them

last week, so it's too early to comment on durability. However,

I will say these are BY FAR the sharpest hooks I have.

So far I have not seen a sharper hook.  Ever.  I have not fished with them yet.  Hopefully when I get back from vacation I will have a chance to throw them.

Owner and Mustad are my preferred hook.

I made the mistake of using the TroKar Drop Shot Hooks.  The first 4 or 5 fish hooked up real easy.  Lost the next 5 fish.  The final straw came when I lost a 5 pound smallmouth on these hooks.  Switched out to my old mainstay, Gamakatsu, and didn't lose a fish the remainder of the day.  I traded the rest of my TroKar's for a pack of Gamakatsu's to a friend who hasn't realized how fragile these hooks are.

A hook only needs a certain amount of sharpness to be set. good ole gammys and mustads are all you need.
