hey breamers
do you change the factory trebles on the 70mm sugapens, NW pencils, dog x jnrs, t-pivots, sammies or do you keep the factories

Some standard hooks are average
some are really good.

You might like a ceratain brand your confident using
Owner, Gama's etc

I mainly use sugarpens for bass, for that, the trebles are mad. Although IMO a bit big for bream, so it can depend on what your using it for too.

The only ones i ditch straight out are Chubbies! All the others i wait till i've at least got a bit of corrosion or a straightened shank.

I go down a size of Owners on lures like Sugapens, (keep the bigger hooks for trevally or bass) Sammy's, CK40's, Fat Ones.

its a bit rude when you pay 20-25 bucks for a lure ,then you have to replace the hooks before you use the thing!
i always replace with those black Owners.nice and sharp and strong.

I keep the standard hooks for social fishing, but would change them to super sharp/sticky st11's for more serious fishing. I've had no problems with the originals..

Same, those silver chubby hooks are any idea what hook they are? fragile is one word i'd describe it

I've no doubt that in the right hands - st11's are the business.

In my hands they straighten alot. I know exactly why they straighten. Its because I hate losing lures. I use 8lb leaders and crank up the drag for alot of the fishing I do.

I cant bring myself to use a drag setting that lets the st11's do their best work.

I dont mind using them on sluggish winter bream but if its summer and I'm near a pylon - Its 36ers

My post doesnt contradict Forsterfisho's in any way - just dont use the 11's if you have a tendancy to lean hard on fish

I change the rear trebs on the sugarpens,decoys are my favorite.
cheers nereus

Looks like a textbook Bream extraction there Laz, You can put hurt on a fish with the UL's but only if all 3 hooks stick in the corner of the mouth.
