Owner or gamakatsu . They both do a good job.

LC uses VMC made, Daiichi sharpened hooks.

I like Owner and Gamakatsu for standard treble replacements. I'll buy the originals when balance is imperative, like a suspending jerkbait.

The Outbarbs on the Vision 110s are VMC Barbarians, but they aren't available in packs as a VMC hook. You have to find them from a Megabass dealer or call Megabass directly.

Gama round bend. I put KVD Triple Grips on a bunch of crankbaits this winter. I have never used them but after watching KVD dominate for years using them I thought I would give them a try. I never buy a product based on what the pros are using so I hope i did not get suckered. Time will tell.

My choices would be:
Daiichi Deathtrap
Owner
Mustad 1X Elite
Gamakatsu

Lots of good choices. The mustad elite has a short shank and wider gap but still round bend. I also really like the short shank magic eye gamakatsu hooks. I fish short shanks on my heavy cover baits.
