With the hook in the corner of the mouth the line is generally out of the way of the fish’s teeth, so lighter leaders can be used for sport fishing. With circle hooks there are also fewer gut-hooked fish, with scientific studies indicating higher survival rates for released fish when using circle hooks and careful catch-and-release techniques.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 14px;\"\u003eSwimerz Circle Hooks, in both inline and offset patterns, are engineered so the point is at a 90 degree angle to the shank of the hook. This feature causes predictable hook sets in the corner of the jaw. They are particularly suited to live baiting for larger fish, bottom fishing, deep-dropping and trolling.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 14px;\"\u003eSwimerz Circle hooks feature -\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 14px;\"\u003ea wide gape big enough to bridge the lip cartilage when the selected hook size has been properly matched to bait size and target species, thereby improving catch rates\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 14px;\"\u003ean oversize eye for freedom of movement\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 14px;\"\u003ea short heavy duty shank to reduce bait interference when fishing for trophy sized fish\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 14px;\"\u003eforged from high grade carbon steel\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 14px;\"\u003eBlack Nickel coated for added rust resistance and also reducing their visibility in the water\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 14px;\"\u003eSwimerz Circle Hooks come in both Inline and Offset patterns.
