I have experienced a few deep hooks fishing eels when I used the Gama circles. Some times the fish just gulp them down. Don't remember when was the last time I deep hooked a fish using J hooks.

Switched over to Eagle Claw 2004ELFS circle hook for bait and livebunker and haven't had a deep hook in years. Use the Mustad 39950BL circle hook with eels and no deep hooks but missing more fish. Switched back to Mustad 94150 J hook with eels and no deep hooks.
