So, Gama changed their Heavy cover and finesse heavy cover flippin hook to the one with the weird bait keeper. I liked the old style metal wire bait keeper.
This means I'll most likely move away from Gamakatsu and go with another manufacturer that has the wire bait keeper on their straight shank flippin hook. What do you guys use?

I try to stick with owner, but the mustad grip pin 3x flipping hook is the deal. Been using it the last 4 years and absolutely love it.
There's a whole thread on this below
Hayabusa hooks impressed me so far
Love me some Owner

I do like Hayabusa, and now that they have an HD version, they got even better. It is a mono keeper, like an Owner Jungle Hook, but tied on each side of the hook, so it gives it a little more area. I actually am going back to Gama because they finally did away with the wire. I really like the new keeper. I get more fish out of a bait with that design. Also, my wires kept turning and falling down the shank. Why don't you like the new design?
