I have used the Mustad brand hooks but seems like I miss more bites the with them then fishing with other style hooks. Have any of you had the same problem? Has anyone had better luck with another brand( if there is on) or a similar style?
Anyone ever try bending their own?
Yep, I have made my own while out on the water using a long-shanked mustad hook. Worked just fine, all you are doing is trying to get the crawler to spin a little and that doesn't take much. A simple leatherman or other needle-nosed pliers will suffice.

You fishing eyes with them? If so how do you fish them and how well do they work? I caught a bunch of the last summer for kicks and giggles and have though about trying them out this year.still prefer truturns when fishing live crayfish (secure and easy rigging)
