Hey dude, there is no 3/0 Gammie Round Bend or EWG trebles! They only make 2/0. It's a bummer for a 12" bait because 2/0 gammie is too small on a 12" lure. If you need them and you can't find them, just call CJ at Bassworld. I've had to go to him to get them too. No one up here has them. Tri-Cities had them for a while, but they sold out. I probably bought them all :) I go through the 2/0 round bend like crazy.

I asked some Gamakatsku dude off the website if they would ever make a 3/0 but they weren't that into it. Oh, plus they would be top secret illegal contraband in California due to our retarded DFG hook regs. crummy huh.

I have the 4X strong hooks but they are LAME because they are too thick and the gap on the hook isn't very wide at all. They fish like a 1/0 but with a longer shank.

On my big lure I'm still using VMC's. Not the coated black ones, but the standard bronze ones. 4/0 size and just sharpen them. I tried some 5/0 eagle claws, but they curve back in at the point and I don't like them much. I have them on my 16" Generic Trout but that's it.
