Just wondering what the current favorite model and sizes of hook that people are using.... so many now to choose from, and especially when I look online.... I've been using Eagle Claw lazer sproat worm hooks size 1/0 upwards and various others for sizes smaller than 1/0. I have always bought a loads of hooks every time I go shopping so I'm probable a bit out of touch with whats out there now.... any suggestions?

My personal favourite is the Mustad 33751BL in 1/0 or 2/0
Great for presenting big baits like crab.

These are the 3 hooks i use. the Sakuma and Cox & Rawls are incredibly strong and stay sharp for a good while. The only negative i fing with the Kamasan is they not as corrosion resistant as the other 2, but i still love them as a general bait hook.

Mine has been Varivas Big Mouth for boat fishing over rough ground . Target species mainly pollack but always the chance of something bigger .
It seems that you can only get the larger sizes 1/0 + from Veals . Postage makes them too expensive to order on their own .
If anyone is familiar the Varivas and could say which of the earlier suggestions are the closest equivalent that would be great .
Cheers

Currently using Cox & Rawle Chinu's, Gamakatsu F314's and Mustad Aberdeens in sizes 1 - 6 for match fishing, for all other fishing i'm using Cox & Rawle uptide extra's / crab hooks, Kamasan B940's and Mustad viking / uptide hooks...

All depends what your targeting, and what bait your using, but owner cutting point ssw 511 are the best hook I've ever used. Gamakatsu f314 are excellent, tubertini series 2 also very good.

Kamasan b940, size 1/0 in most situations.
