YEA ROB!! You spanked a couple for the camera and your calfishing.com tee was clearly visable, especially if you (me)were looking for it. GREAT JOB!! It was a good segment all told. Until someone sits down with Gamakatsu and /or Owner and designs a swimbait specific hook, I think we'll just have to do the best we can with whats out there. I do think that if the hook color is important enough to you, then it would be to your benefit and peace of mind ,to take the time to paint the hooks or POWDER COAT the hooks that you DO HAVE CONFIDENCE IN. Until then, I guess it's a balance between the 'hook color to strike ratio' and the 'strike to bent hook/dumped fish ratio'....... As for me, once they're on I want them to STAY on! If I never got the bite , oh well, but if I get the bite and lose the fish to rubba hooks, well then I deserve to feel like the guy that just kicked my dog also kicked me in the 'nads..... Peace Bruddas, ALEX ..... but, again Rob, CONGRATS for makin' the TEEVEE!!!
