anytime your livebait fishing you run the risk of guthooking...i hook them in the snout with an eagle claw L774 4X bronze treble (size 2)...set the hook when the line starts peeling...most often i get a mouth hook but if i don't then the bronze hooks rust out faster, just cut the line and let the fish go...
