These hyper-sharp, in-line circle hooks were purchased to be used as the upper hook in a high/low fluke ( summer flounder ) rig. Typically, one of these hooks is tied to a 25 - 5- cm length of fluorocarbon line some 25 - 35 cm above the main lure a Spro buck tail jig. Both are thereafter tipped with Gulp! swimming' mullets and either cast or jigged, depending whether if fished from, a boat, pier, or shore. The advantage of the in-line circle hook is in their design, with about 90+% of lip hooked fish, allowing much lower mortality and an easier released fish. The caveat is the hook set, which requires slow raising the rod tip or pointing the rod in the direction of the fish and reeling, allowing the hook to pass over the fish's mouth and lodge in the lip. These sine in still fishing, wherein the fish grabs the bait, swallows it, and swims away, hooking itself in the lip. Being Gamakatsu hooks, these are sharper than if you sharpened them yourself by belt or hone, and that really says it all. When used properly, they stick and stay stuck.Read full review
