I hook under the eels jaw and out an eye . Catching multiple Bass with one eel casting from the beach. With no rocks a thinner hook works fine I don’t set the hook with circles I bow the rod then an easy sweep parallel to the water so the line and hook are sliding pass the jaw hinge and that’s it ,, and straight up hook set I see a Bass feel the pressure and just open it’s mouth and the hook follows the line right out. also how you tie your circle hooks matter. I think. I snell mine with the main leader back to the braid goes in the back of the hook eye so the line pull cause the circle hook to turn in driving the point
