oh ya! i caught my first hatch Ho on it  ;D  i completely forgot that i attached a size 6 DNE hook on a #2 nickel blade.  i was just too excited that i caught that Ho.  maybe that's why i didn't lose it  ;)  i know that the point is really sharp and it didn't straighten out with the 6lb Ho.  so far so good.  maybe you should give it a shot and see for yourself  :)

Where you work? And yes the DNE's are the best on the market in my opinion right now. I talked to the sales representative today and he gave me some more samples including their new barbless ones that will be available within the next few weeks. They have razor cutting points and a indent without a point that makes them barbless when they act as if it's still there. If the fish strikes hard theres no chance of it getting off with these ones. 8)

Hey guys
I know the sales represent for DNE  Fishing Hooks company. 8)
and I have talked to him either in Vedder today.  I saw the hooks in few fishing stores in Vancouver and the price is cheap.  It is around $2.65 something.  And the quantity in one pack is more than Gamakatsu.  I think it is a very good deal for the hooks since the quality of the hooks is high.   ;D
