Wow, this is definatley getting interesting
RANDY,
I want to go over a few things with you about the 1/0 Visions that you had problems with. First of all, I would like to send you a 100 replacement hooks in size 2/0 or 3/0. I want to clear the record and say that the 1/0 Visions that you used are about the same size as a #1 Gamakatsu and since Visions are sized smaller, then please make sure you go a size up if you are used to using that size in a Gamakatsu. Get a hold of me at
visionhooks@hotmail.com and we can talk about getting you a replacement.
I would also like to thank you guys for the feedback which is appreciated both good and bad. I've said it before and I'll say it again.....we are a small company and we are trying to sell a quality product at a good price. Visions are the best chemically sharpened hook for the price (roughly 1/2 the price of Gammies).
I do a lot of field testing with Vision hooks, swivels and I use them in some pretty interesting situations like Catcher 1 got to witness yesterday. 15lb. chums with #4 and #2 Visions? Yup! Did it yesterday and broke the Maxima leader but didn't break any hooks.
Please, folks, do not try this at home! I also use comparably sized Gamakatsu's in my research along with Owner and Mustad. Part of field testing is *comparison* which involves using similarily matched products in order to have an idea of how our product holds up to the competition. So far so good.
I have met a lot of great people from this board and if anybody wants to get a Vision Hooks demo on the water or you want me to send a sample to you, then e-mail me at
visionhooks@hotmail.com *
Thanks for being patient with your sample packages too. I get a helluva lot of requests and I am doing my best to get them all sent outNow let's quit debating and get out there and get into what is turning out to be the best salmon season in recent history!

Peace
