Circle Fishing Hooks

Circle hooks are designed with healthy catch and release strategies in mind. A very high percentage of fish captured on circle hooks are hooked in the corner of the mouth making release mortality exceptionally low. Some anglers have a problem with getting used to the fact that this type of hook requires no hook set. In fact, if an angler does try to set the hook, it mostly likely will pop out of the mouth of the fish. When you feel a bite on this type of hook, simply begin reeling in your line and the hook automatically sets itself in the corner of the fish’s mouth.

Eagle Claw Circle Hooks
Eagle Claw has built its reputation in the fishing industry on being a leader in hook manufacturing for nearly 85 years. Eagle Claw Circle Hooks come in a variety of sizes, wire diameters and finishes. Circle hooks serve a great benefit to both the angler and the fish. Scientific studies have concluded that a very high percentage of fish captured using circle hooks are hooked perfectly in the corner of the mouth making release mortality rates very low. The mechanics behind the design of a circle hook allow the hook to slide through the fishes jaw and then turn when it hits the corner of the mouth. This causes the hook point to turn over and instantly penetrate the flesh. The key to using a circle hook successfully is not simply not set the hook. When the fish takes the bait, point your rod tip at the water. As the line continues to tighten when the fish moves away with the bait you will begin to feel the fish become hooked as the line becomes very tight. At this point you slowly raise your rod tip up into the fighting position and the battle is on. Circle hooks work perfectly for bait fishing, whether is be live bait, cut bait or whole dead bait.
