DZ - Thanks, I'm pretty sure it's the middle one that I was thinking of.

There's alot of very interesting data in there.

For example
-The deep hooking mortality rate for striped bass caught with conventional bait hooks in this study was 53.1%.

-The deep hooking mortality rate with non-offset circle hooks was 23.5%.

- Overall, 9.1% of the striped bass caught on conventional hooks died whereas only 0.8% of the fish caught on circle hooks died.

It's also interesting to see the data on temperature effecting survival.
