Umpqua U002 hook feedback wanted?

[Andy]

The new Umpqua U002 hooks come 50 to a pack, are forged and chemically sharpened. They are made in Korea and have the same packaging as Tiemco hooks. Cabela's lists them as being TMC U002 hooks in their catalog but the Tiemco name doesn't appear on the hook packaging.

I'm wondering if I should assume and believe Tiemco is producing those hooks for Umpqua? Does anyone have any experience pro or con with those new hooks? They don't look that bad and you get twice as many hooks for your money.

From what I've gathered, it's the same "style" hook that umpqua offers.
