    I use 8/0 Gama now and Mustad, I was just getting low on both and was wondering if people have had more luck with one than the other.

    Gamma will always outsell Mustad in catfishing, they have focused on it more.

    Mustad will slowly get more popular as they continue their sponsorships and get key people to provide social proof of the product line.

    Give it 3-6 months.

    Its happening now.

    I think I'll just go ahead and get me some Invictas. Thet seem like a great hook, most everyone is raving over them on this site. That sends me a signal in my mind that they're doing something right!

    Between me and you..

    There are not many hook machine factories in the World.

    Where I get mine, many get theirs.

    Its all marketing, Social Proof, and positioning.

    Take a pair of pliers to me and offset them a little, but be careful and don't touch the tip with the pliers. You'll dull it.
