Circle Hook Problems & How to Figure Out What’s Going Wrong!

2019-08-21

Circle hook problems usually boil down to a few things:

  1. wrong hook for the application
  2. wrong rig for the application
  3. wrong bait type for the application
  4. wrong hookset for the application
  5. lack of an exposed hook point

Generally any circle hook problem can be solved by addressing one or more of the issued listed above.

Circle hook missed bites can also come from a poor selection of fishing rod. Most catmen like a soft tipped rod with plenty of backbone. That soft tip is crucial for setting circle hooks as it gradually adds tension instead of putting the full weight of the rod against the fish on the outset.
