Re: Tile Fish - Circle Hook or Octopus Hook???
Circles. Crimps. 3 or 4x. 80 main and 130 on the hooks.
Tiles will hook themselves on a circle hook. Let em eat then elevator up!
Tying rigs with 80 and 130 is a pain in the ass. Crimp and be done with it.
Tilefish have teeth. Not big teeth, but enough to chafe up your line around the hook. You'll get more life outta your rigs with 130. You'll also be in good shape should you hook up with a nice snowy or wreckfish 600+ ft down. Or if a tuna grabs it on the way down...
