I wasn't implying that the hooks aren't good, I hope I didn't come off that way. They just tend to break when you bend them, but that's my fault  |
No I didn't take it that way at all. We have been discussing the TM hook for several years. The jig head was designed to catch trout in the upper part of the mouth without injuring a trout...and it does that about 98 percent of the time. At the time that jig head was put on the market I don't think the owners ever thought about using the Trout Magnet for other specie of fish. But as time passed many of us started using it for Gills. After much discussion they came out with the Panfish jig head with the longer shank. I like it better but it is a brittle hook also.
