Circle Fishing Hooks Set

Description

This is a 200pc Circle Fishing Hook Set made using carbon steel, barbed hooks. The kit consists of ten different size hooks for freshwater or saltwater fishing. A circle hook is a type of fishing hook which is sharply curved back in a circular shape.

It has become widely used among anglers in recent years because the hook generally catches more fish. A positive is circle hooks are rarely swallowed. The circle hook catches the fish on the lips at the corner of its mouth. This usually decreases the mortality rates of released fish as compared to J-hook or Octopus hooks. It is important not to perform a traditional hookset when a fish bites; rather, just begin reeling in. Performing a typical hookset while using a circle hook often results in the hook being pulled out of the fish altogether.

Usage:

The circle hook’s shape allows it to only hook onto an exposed surface. Which in the case of a fish means the corner of its mouth. The fish takes the baited hook and swallows it, and as the hook is reeled in, it is safely pulled until it reaches the mouth. The circle shape of the bend sets this hook apart from others and makes it a favorite among conservation-minded anglers. Circle hooks have a reputation for consistently hooking fish in the corner of the mouth, making it easier and quicker to release them unharmed.

When using a circle hook and a fish strikes you simply point the tip of the rod at the fish and slowly begin to reel in. The hook will set itself, usually in the corner of the mouth. Circle hooks are also much less likely to snag bottom or debris. Fish with sharp teeth are less likely to cut the line as they are hooked in the corner of the mouth. Less fish are lost and fishermen often can use lighter leaders which may improve catch rates.

This Circle Fishing Hook Set contains ten different size hooks so they can be used anywhere you fish.
