Rodney I have sat back pretty much and listened to you talk about yourself
and your products. I could be wrong, and probably am, but maybe it is not the products themselves but your approach to everything. You can take this as a personal attack if you want, but it isn't intended as one. Nobody likes someone that beats their chest every single chance they get. It is definitely a free country and you can be as proud as you want about your products, but you will have to expect some recoil. Also this reminds me of the movie Jay and Silent Bob strikes back. Where they are trying to stop the movie from being made because people on the internet were ripping on them. You are not going to stop people from taking shots at your product. I can guarantee there is not one product on the market that doesn't have someone tearing into it on a daily basis. Why concentrate your efforts on fighting the minority and continue marketing to what you believe is the majority. Continue to put your products in the hands of people that you feel are influential and don't sweat the things from people whom you feel are not important anyway. Your confidence is borderline arrogant, whether your product can back it up or not is irrelevant. It is great that your developed something maybe nobody ever thought of, and it actually went to market, and you are probably making some $$ off of it, but man try and remain humble, things could change for you, one of your Rock Hoppers that are 97% snagless could get caught in a rock, and then like it is supposed to with someone tugging on it come loose (as it is expected to 97% of the time) and hit the guy (or gal) in the forehead and kill them. Then you have a lawsuit on your hands and boom all your $$ gone, and no one using your products because of the reputation of them being lethal. Of course this is an over dramatization, but hopefully my point got through. If not, oh well, good luck. Chris "Rodney" . wrote in message ... go-bassn wrote: Rod at Round Valley: "Damn!

I don't think very many folks use these, but the Matuzo Sickle hooks work
very well for me and I've tried about everything. I replace all of my crankbait hooks with these also and haven't lost a fish. I lose my share with Gammies and all of the other premium brands though. The Matuzo's are a bit hard to find, but they are worth a try. I haven't bent a worm hook yet either, and they bite very well on even a mediocre hookset. "Charles B. Summers" wrote in message ... I lost a fish yesterday that definately would have helped my standings, due to a bad hook. I generally have no problems with the BPS hooks, but then again, every now and then I get one that wants to bend very easily. Yesterday was a good example. I set the hook on a fish and missed. I knew good and well that he was there and felt the fish as I set the hook. When I reeled in my line, I noticed the the hook was bent like I had hung up on a rock... except there wasn't enough pressure for a bend like that. I examined the hook to find that I could easily bend that thing in any direction I wanted to, and it would remain in that position. So, I'm going to be looking for another hook that I can use and won't bend. I've tried the gammy's and the owners, but didn't like the gammys and the owners are way too expensive. Anyone have any suggestions? (EWG - 2/0, 3/0, 4/0) |

Crankbaits are the exception for me for going away from Daiichi on the
trailing hook. I use Mustad Triple Grip hooks on the trailing hook and Daiichi Bleeding bait on the belly for every crankbait, and stickbait. So far so good, I can't claim a 100% hook to land ratio, but combined with a good fiberglass rod (except for deep running cranks, I go with graphite) the hook to landing ratio gets better every year .
