Gamakatsu Offset Octopus Circle Hook

Awesome hooks, very strong and sharp.

Be careful, it is very sharp. Not for kids to handle.

Excellent

The Gamakatsu Offset Octopus Circle Hooks in size 8/0 are perfect for big live baits or cut bait to catch big channels, bluecats, and flatheads. Remember, DO NOT JERK on your pole when you get a bite. Jerking just pulls the hook away from the fish. Wait until you're sure the fish has it in his mouth and start reeling, the hook will turn and snag the corner of his mouth......AND THE FIGHT IS ON!

I first bought a few of these octopus hooks when I saw them go on sale. I recently started upgrading my Texas rig offset hooks from "cheaper" generic hook brands to Gamakatsu. At first, I was hesitant at spending nearly $1 a hook (or more for some variances!), but after losing countless bass, I figured it was worth looking into (along with trying different lines, rod/reel setups, technique, etc. etc.).My hookup/landing ratio of bites has definitely improved since moving to Gamakatsu. It's not magic and it won't make fish suddenly appear and bow down before you, but, if you do your part, this hook will not let you down. I will never buy "cheap" hooks again. If you scan various sites and look for sales, you can usually find these and Gamakatsu offset hooks for about $0.50 per hook. The "cheap" ones are about half that, but for the durability and quality, it's no contest. Pay up for the quality and don't leave the lake wondering how big that one you lost was! 3/0 is my standard, but I use 2/0-5/0, depending on the size and weight of the plastic I'm using at the time).Idk what others are using these hooks for (I was gonna try these for drop shots, but I haven't yet), but I use these hooks for throwing whacky rigged Senkos. The 2/0 is perfect size, looks small compared to my other setups but flat out gets the job done! It's only been about 3 months since I first bought, but I seriously don't think I've lost a single fish on these.My opinion was solidified about 3 weeks ago when I landed a PB 6.5lb Largemouth Bass using these hooks (see picture). We don't see many 5+ pound bass around my parts here in the northeast, and I landed that monster on a budget Ugly Stik combo I bought on Amazon a few years earlier for under $50. I've since begun to appreciate the benefits of higher end rods and reels, but let this be a lesson for those of you on a tighter budget - spend the extra money on quality hooks, line, and lures - you can always make due with a "budget" reel that weighs a few ounces more.Hope this helps, happy fishing!
