Just wondering what everyones idea of the best salt hook is. Im looking at Dai Riki, Tiemco, or going cheap with mustad or eagle claw. Whats your guys opinion on this. I would like to keep with the sickle hook design we run with our jigs but I havent seen any in smaller sizes. Thanks.

My buddy loves the tiemco hooks, he definetly swears by them. I will use any hook in the salt as long as its stainless steel.

And using mustads wouldnt change performance at all. right? Its not like a octopus hook banging off the rocks in a drift.

the old 34007 series hook was a standard hook for a long time.
it shouldnt change performance, but they are deffinately not as good a hook as some of the alternatives IMO
