Yeah the ones i got where the 5311's. They are more or less octopus. Look exactly the same.

And i disagree. A sharp hook is needed. Getting that hook to penetrate the jaw and stay in there isnt a job for a weak un-sharp hook. Larger barb and super sharp is what you want and from what i can see and read Owner is the way to go

Gamakatsus are very brittle too. I'm using VMC now and they're great! Very sharp and not too expensive.

Just found this post and was thinking the same thing about the Gami's. What size 5311's do you use 3/0 or 4/0 and do they hold gulp OK without bait holder?
