Circle Hook / YoYo Rig Comment Period and Hearings

[Saltheart]

I have no issue with the Yo Yo thing. As stated already , just attach it to the line if you must Yo Yo.

The J hooks for eels will hurt IMO. I can see Circle Hooks for chunks or Clams , etc but for something like an eel that is actively fished like a lure , there should be an allowance of J hooks. Thet also need to consider rigged eels. Is that a lure or a bait?? I say its a lure.
