To Snell or not to Snell
Looking for some opinions...
I like to use circle hooks when using 30-40 leader for tuna. Reason being, I've had tuna "chew thru" thinner leaders when hooked deeper than in the jaw. Here lately I've dropped some fish well into a fight with a pulled hook. I've been using 7/0-8/0 Owner SSW hooks. I SNELL the leader to the hook.
My question IS: Is the snell not allowing the hook to move properly? Would a palomar work better?
