How Circle Hooks Work

The distinct curved shape ensures the hook travels to the corner of the mouth or lip when the fish swallows the bait, resulting in fewer deep-hooked fish. Setting the hook requires a firm tightening of the line rather than a hard strike - making this the ultimate catch & release hook.

Applications

• Live bait drifting for Tarpon
• Trolling for Marlin with bridle-rigged bait
• Deep-dropping for Swordfish
• Bottom fishing for Grouper and Snapper

Target Species

Tuna, Marlin, Sailfish, Swordfish, Sharks, Wahoo, Halibut, Amberjack, Permit, Striped Bass, Alligator Gar

Pro Tip: When live baiting, always match the hook size to your bait for best results.
