tackticle fly hooks

what brand hook is everybody using for tying tacticle style flies, I see a lot of variations in the brands available, shank length, eye angle , wire size, etc. i like the lightning strike jf2 hook , because of the shank length, eye angle, wire size. the draw back is the hook material seems soft and it will straighten out when put to the test.ideally i would like the jf2 hook with a harder wire.

any suggestions

"Tactical" perhaps? Personally I mostly ignore the hype and just use the standard hooks for the majority of my nymphs, even when 'euro-nymphing'. When I need a jig hook, I tend to gravitate to either Umpqua's U555 or Allen's J100BL. YMMV.
