    What y'all think.

    Don't usually buy much fishing stuff from Walmart but came across these hooks and thought I would give them a try. Gonna use them for surf fishing. Might work for Sheepshead, they look a little thin, would probably bend easily. they aren't very cheap either(which wouldn't be good for Sheepshead either considering how much tackle I go through on those suckers). They are $4 for just 5 hooks. I am gonna give them a try though.

    They look good but if you don't need the swivel I'd recommend these. Use the black chrome. They're light but strong, and come in several sizes. A lot cheaper too.

    I already use the heck out of mosquito hooks. I was just thinking these might be good for single drop rigs, wouldn't need an extended piece of leader branching off. Will report back once I get to use them.

    I haved used them for drop shorting largemouths and they're needle sharp-work well for that vertical application. I'd think a sheepie would crush them but would work well for other light applications.
