Quick take
A 200-piece assorted octopus circle hook kit with two shank barbs that secure bait and reduce fish mortality.
This 200-piece set from AGOOL gathers octopus circle hooks in sizes 1# through 8# in a plastic box, so each size stays separate. The offset point and the two baitholder barbs on the shank help hold bait and turn the hook toward the corner of the jaw. Made of high-carbon steel with a black nickel coat, the hooks suit bass, pike, muskellunge and salmon in both fresh and salt water.
Best for
- Bait fishing for bass, pike and salmon
- Catch-and-release programs

Skip if
- You fish artificial only; circle hooks are for live bait
- You use treble hooks; offset point works better for some
Strengths
