I have caught a ton of cod over the last 50 years and I don't ever remember deep hooking a fish. So I don't think circle hooks will help much for recreational fishing to prevent unnecessary kills. But I would have no problem if circle hooks were required.
On the other hand going with single hooks on jigs would make a big difference in protecting fish in my opinion. Especially on small fish but really on all sizes treble hooks snag a lot of fish. If your fishing for haddock a single tube usually works better anyway.
