Snatchers are the ones with the tinsel thing attached to the hook mate. Google snapper snatchers and you will see what I mean

I’ve heard that to. But it may be worth thinking about where many name brands are madeJasonfish1234 wrote: ↑Sun Sep 08, 2019 10:28 pmChinese stuff is not very good.fishnut wrote: ↑Sun Sep 08, 2019 10:06 pmChinaJasonfish1234 wrote: ↑Sun Sep 08, 2019 4:45 pmNever heard about Rigmater hooks, what country do those hook make form?
Like Ian I have used Rig master hooks I also use gamma I have never had one of Riggies hooks break. I have had gammas break.
Riggies circles are a thicker section than the gamma like the Mustard
My guess lan like me uses Riggies 8/0 and 5/0 or 6/0 inline circles

Re: Gamakatus octopus circle hook vs Mustad Circle hook
I think is more like how they make, mustad is make from thick wide lines which make it stronger, while gamakatsu make from thin wide lines which it weaker however those that are are very sharp and the sharpness last long while mustad or thicker wide line hook it sharp but it sharp is slowly getting worst over time. With gamakatsu there is new model 2018 circle hook with beak outside, which it make the hook stronger. 2018 gamakatsu haven't hit our local store yet. I wish it will hit next year.cheaterparts wrote: ↑Mon Sep 09, 2019 8:50 amI’ve heard that to.

Re: Gamakatus octopus circle hook vs Mustad Circle hook
Mustad hooks are good quality, sharp and strong I use them all the time.
Gamakatsu are arguably the best money can buy, but many times the price of Mustad.
