I use these hooks, I havent seen a finer hook in 8s and 6s so far.

if you can find me a better one pm me for my address to try.
I bought some of these but this morning I hooked into a barbel which I never saw so cannot say for sure what size it was. I never saw it because the hook snapped on the bend. Now to be fair this could have been a rogue hook but I have never had ANY hook snap on me before.
I'm going to carry out a bit of testing on some of the other hooks I bought but as far as fishing is concerned I'll probably go back to the Korda wide gapes I've used for the past 5 years.
Been using E-S-P Raptor T-6 and never had a problem with them ...
The only problem I do have ..... They told me in my local tackle shop they have stoped producing them .
Buy a lifetimes supply.......
What I did and still got hundreds - old pattern Nash Fangs - lovely.

I will say again in 6 and 8s you will not be dissapointed. Was the broken hook by any chance a 10?

Yes it was a 10. As I said, it was probably a rogue hook but it sows seeds of doubt.l
