Circle Hooks – self-hooking & fish-friendly

Circle hooks are designed to lodge securely in the corner of the fish’s mouth, reducing deep hooking and making catch & release easier. Popular in live bait, natural bait and big game fishing, they deliver a high hookup rate even without a strong strike.
