I usually use Tiemco 2487 because I had a couple of bad experiences with the Kam B100s

But again its down to personal preference.

What was wrong with b100's, Mayfly, want to see if it was just a bad box i got or a general thing mine were badly forged because some were different shape than others and very soft could bend them in the vice using tying silk.

I COULD NOT keep any decent fish on them as they kept opening and that was using the size 10s but some guys swear by them.

To be honest it was happening too frequently and it got to the stage when playing a fish I was hoping and praying the hook wouldnt straighten.

They used to be grand.

Does mustad do busser hooks as I swear by them for sea fishing and their wet fly hooks are good me thinks.
