When using circle hooks, you need to keep slack out of the line. When the fish takes the bait, don't try to set the hook - just hold firm. As the fish pulls away from the taut line, it should lip-hook itself. If you give them slack, they have time to swallow the bait, no matter what kind of hook it is.
