Slammer,
what size circle hooks do u use ???? did u hook the mackeral in the back or in the mouth with it. i recentley tried using a circle hook with a live herring and hooking them in the back so my first herring i threw out there i had a small run and it took the bait right off??? then i had one more herring left and i had the biggest hit i ever had. the pole went down and almost snapped . i tried to set the hook and it snapped a 20 pound line like paper. so over all i havent had much success using a circle hook with live herring but with chunking it worked great. so mayb ur help would help me land more fish.
hooked
p.s have u tried using them with live eels??
