I only use circles for eels, 5/0, 6/0 octopus, gami's and the eagle claws are pretty good too. I use regular octopus for chunks the 3 times a year i throw chunk. 40 lb leader for the canal and never had a problem, and rarely miss a take. it aint hard to throw the reel in gear and let the fish hook itself, easier than settin the hook in my opinion.
