I, too, almost without fail, get the bass in the jaw with the Octopus Gamakatsu, or even lately, with the cheap Octo- Eagle Claw hooks.

Tap, tap, tug, tug, bow to the fish, rear back and set the hook, skill perhaps and to each their own.

I have even sunk to regular mono leader over floro, and regular barrel swivels over ball-bearing. The fish do not care and the catching is the same, just cheaper, great!
