sharpy86 Posted February 19, 2018 Report Posted February 19, 2018 Hey lads - I see a few names that I remember well still on this forum - hope you are all well! I've been out of the game for a couple of years (having a kid), but starting to prepare for my first session. I used to be really confident using the Fox Arma Point Hooks (SSC mostly), but see these have been replaced by the "new" edges range. Anyone know if these are the same hooks, just packaged differently? i.e. SSC = Curve Shank? Quote
yonny Posted February 19, 2018 Report Posted February 19, 2018 I believe they are different hooks buddy. Quote
greekskii Posted February 19, 2018 Report Posted February 19, 2018 New edges hooks are very poor. Very soft and blunt as they hit the water. I loved the arma points. Bought a few of the edges hooks and binned them. Steer clear. Quote
sharpy86 Posted February 19, 2018 Author Report Posted February 19, 2018 Cheers guys - such a shame - really liked those things. I have a few left over to keep me going a while. I’ll take a look at the ESP ones Nige - Cheers Quote
smufter Posted February 20, 2018 Report Posted February 20, 2018 Have a look at the offerings from Bank Tackle too. https://www.banktackle.co.uk/hooks-41-c.asp Absolutely brilliant hooks, pin sharp out of the pkt and really strong. I am using the "Continentals" and have no complaints at all. The curves look good too, but only go down to 6's where I personally prefer 4's. And the service from Bank Tackle is second to none. 1st class delivery (free) and I have never had a duff order from them. They are the only people I use nowadays for my terminal tackle. finchey 1 Quote
sharpy86 Posted March 13, 2018 Author Report Posted March 13, 2018 Picked up a pack of the Cryogen Curve Hooks in a 6. Look and feel nice. Shame they don’t do a barbless version for venues that have such a rule. Quote
nigewoodcock Posted March 13, 2018 Report Posted March 13, 2018 You could always try the new pinpoint hooks from Nash. Barbless too! Quote

If you've ordered them already, I can guarantee they'll be here well before the week-end. I have never been let down by Bank Tackle. It's usually next day, or the day after at the latest. gagnaccarp 1 Quote
