Thumbs down ever break hooks on Spro jigs?

I bought a bunch of these on sale at Dick's last summer. I'm pretty sure I broke the hook on 2 of them last year and I just broke 2 last week...

It like adding insult to injury when,instead of breaking the line and losing a $4 jig, you real it up and have to cut it off and throw away a $4 jig.

They sure are pretty but you should never break a hook on 12lb test line, EVER.

I bought some of them for Fluke fishing, to be honest I have not fished them hard at all as I am stuck in my old ways, but sorry to hear this!
Hope it doesn't happen with a nice fish on!
