I may try it, but I am still going to work on my techniques. Went out yesterday and actually angled for fish, instead of trolling or dropping live bait on the bottom. Did not point one tip at any fish, still can't stop setting with reel though. I find that with circle hooks you are much less apt to gut hook the fish. Usually catch them in the corner of their mouth. Easier to remove the hook and much easier on the fish. That's true in general, but... I've seen circle hooks get caught in odd angles - they don't work all the time exactly the way they are intended to work. Depends on the bait used and how much. I agree, but I'm still convinced they're better than other designs. I went out fishing for a few hours this afternoon after the north wind here today died down. Used circle hooks. Brought no bait. Was asked how I expected to catch fish without any bait. Said I didn't expect to. Catching fish is not necessarily the most important aspect of "going fishing." Spent a bit of the time practicing casting with light egg sinkers and no hooks at all. Sure you did. Did Dr. Dr. Krause accompany you? |
