Circle hooks suck...they are complete nonsense, bass do not ever get "gut hooked" with a live eel, back of the throat is as far as that thing gets..Beside that you have to wait for the fish to hook themselves=No fun at all...
Use a Mustad 94150 Live Bait hook size 6/0
Stay away from Gami octopus hooks there way to thin and tear thru the eel to fast...Cast em out and reel em in slow thats all there is to it..
