Not sure what hook the Mustad was. Up to 5/0 I really like the Eagle Ckaw 774. For bigger (7/0 and 8/0) I like the Mustad 3551. You'll need to sharpen them right away but they sharpen easy and well.

I was wondering the same thing as I am changing out some hooks and was going to order some more. I know they weren't the 3551's, as they had a bend on the point. It may be these, since they are a newer model:

There is an episode from season 7 on The Next Bite page that promotes this model too.

I'm with Propster on this one. I'd go Eagle claw anything 5/0 and smaller, I personally think they hook up a little better than any of the others.
