Mustad Viking for shingle beach and boat fishing.

Heavy wire aberdeans.

Mustad baitholding worm hooks.

I used to use a lot of Mustad, Kamasan and Cox & Rawle hooks.

I now use an un-named brand in a plain box from Korea. 100 hooks which only cost between £3 to £5 a box and they catch just as many fish as others I've used.

Because of the cost saving and what seems to me like the same catch ratio I use these pretty much for everything now.

Varivas and Mustads for me.

Mustads for Big Cod fishing and Conger etc.... Varivas for all else. Supper sharp hook points. The Big mouth range good for general Cod and Skate fishing in the channel.

Use saltwater champions for scratching rigs and Sole, flounder etc.

Damn fine hooks. Good value for money.

I use whatever I've got in the tackle box.
Its about time I paid more attention the the more important parts of the tackle, so, looking at the various replies to this thread I'll get some more.
There was a thread not too long ago which was talking about hooks that can bend out when snagged. Which ones are best for that situation?

[Hooker]

i always get the b940s in boxes of 100, cost £7 for a box.

[Denzle]

Yup,
I'll go along with the Kamazans, but then again i'll buy what i fancies at the time, been into those circle hooks of late and they seem to be alright don't get so much of the deep hooking usually get a lip hook.(when i do catch)

[pingu]

usually vivaras, but only cos i'm lazy and get on line, maybe should look at better ones for specific jobs I:e worm/crab etc and not 1 hook for all

[Norfolkboy]

I use mustad hooks normally just for routine beach fishing
