Offset or wide gap circle hooks are just as bad and at times worse than J and octopus hooks as far as hooking a fish deep. I use only straight ones . They even work great catching stripers slinging eels.You just need to learn how to use them.Takes a little practice but trust me it does make a difference especially releasing a lip or jaw hooked fish.
