I'm probably "that guy" who really digs in deep when making modifications to swimbaits/big baits (engineers can be that way) but I've gotten away from the Owner trebles and primarily use Mustad triple grip trebles, now that they make them in large enough sizes. To me the cutting point on the owners seems to create a larger hole than the Mustad does, and I lose far fewer fish on the Mustads. But depending on the style/ shape of the bait I will also use Decoy quad hooks or Ryugi twin hooks.
You will fit in around here...

Thanks! I've been doing this awhile, just never realized TT has a forum. Who knew? :D

I haven't had a problem yet with owner hooks. But Ryugi hooks seem to be a good option as well
