Angler Innovations Hooks

Hey. Do any of you have any experience with Angler Innovations hooks? I'm looking to replace the hooks and rings on a Lucky Craft plug and the only ones available in the size I want (and barbless) are made by AI. I've never used that brand. Are they any good? Are they better than the ones that come with the Lucky Craft? Or should I just suck it up and pay the shipping for Owners or Gammi's?

Hooks are inexpensive - stay with quality. You can always crimp the barbs

Don't get me started. It's not the cost. It just burns my backside that none of the sporting goods stores in my area carry a decent selection of barbless hooks. You would think that they could order them and let me pick them up. These AI hooks cost just as much as the good ones that I'm familiar with, I just would like to know if anybody has any experience with them, before I buy them.

You can also file the barbs off as I do.
