I just use the finger test on anything I'm going to take out on the next trip. If it's even borderline penetrating, I'll either touch it up with a little sharpening hone or switch it out. I keep replacement trebles in nos. 6,8 and 10 in Owner SSW series hooks. There are some dandy hooks on the market but Owners are so sharp they'll hurt you just walking past them in the store.
We're born, we live for a while, and then we die.  Sounds like a good reason to go ice fishing.

On some of the lures  they are prone to bending. The small cast masters and the slender spoons.
