yup "supercows" aka cow stripers talked to the Mustad Rep at a fishing show he did say that he has been trying to get Mustad to upgrade the Ultra point hooks to 3x, there is hope.

I am a fishing guide on the East Coast, we fish for stripe bass in areas with current and we also run into "football, 100-200lb blue fin tuna' with in 1 mile from shore. Not trying to be pretentious but we could commiserate all day about bent hooks.
