Anyone tried these for stripers or blues? If yes, what did you think?

They look beautiful. All the colors look impressive and life like. My only concern is the hooks as they are pretty small. One of the sales guys at CT Outfitters says the hooks hold up even with bigger fish(35lb + range). He recommended using a small frozen sand eal or cut bait for a scented trailer.

"Shimano's Lucanus Jig features an aerodynamic head, a dual eyelet design with a glow eye, a multiple hook system and durable silicon skirts. They come in 5 different sizes from 60 grams to 200 grams."

They catch fish which is the most important part.
