The problem with circle hooks is that you swing and miss if you try to set up on a fish in the conventional hookset... I was using a 6/0 Gamu and hooked all 5 of this mornings fish (up to 32 inches) on the lip or withing an inch of it... The big momma (OK, it was a little under 20 pounds (I think)) broke me off on a piling >( ... It was my fault too 'caue I was thinking how it would look breaking in the grille tonight...
