I have found no better hook for punchin , flippin or pitchin than Paychecks.
None. The rest is just a waste of money and time. I'd rather pay for a paycheck hook than
to fumble all day on the water with any other. thats just me.

Paycheck is undisputed

I have just recetly gotten the strike king version so the jury is still out. My intial impression is that you
dont want to use 30# braid, its more of a 60# or better. Its just so robust.

I've used gamma's and I do like them when i fix them, 6# test , heat strink, gorrilla glue.
