Default Re: Circle hooks for C-Bass

Everbody has their preference. Some ways work just as good and some are a little more hook up efficient. More importantly, it depends on the angler's experience with each type of hook. If one is used to a type, then stick with it. A rig with three 3/0 circles or 3/0 octopus w/glow beads seems like a sure winner to me. BUT, you might loose a couple more fish with the octopus if you hook a fish and keep it down there for a double or triple header.

This year, with the mad dog bites out there, I found that the simple one hook rig with a whole squid worked best for big fish. I had circles and J's, since I am not a "swinger" anyway, both worked fine. If you are accustomed to swinging the fish from the bottom right into the boat with a 100'looping swing, stick with the J's. With braided line and sharp hooks I just reel in when I get a bite anyway.
