Hooks on Buckshots

Upgraded my hooks on a few Buckshots I use regularly to size 4 Gamakatsu red trebles. Had a hit and hookset on a fish at the old hay bay church on Sunday that straightened out all three trebles and never did see the fish. Probably a big pike because I have caught ten pound eyes on the factory hooks and been fine. Probably would have snapped my line if I wasn't using 14 lb test.

Thanks for the input guys I will give these Gamakatsu's a try and see how they work. Fairly small barbs on them but very sharp and strong
