Well done on the session but even more so about the circle hooks.

I particularly liked what you had to say about switching to circle hooks because I've done a lot of fishing in Florida, where circle hooks are very popular. I've always found that a fish which goes off on a run after picking up the bait will hook itself in the process, and with circle hooks that usually results in the hook being in the corner of it's mouth. I've used them with shrimp and live-bait to catch snappers, bluefish and jack cravelle over there but I haven't tried using them for worm fishing here in the UK...so I'm now going to.





Good luck with the hooks Dave hope it goes we'll for you :thumb:
