Lets take a look at some Pros and Cons of the J-Hook: Pros Longer shank J-Hooks help keep toothy fish from breaking you off Great around structure as you set the hook, this pulls fish away from structure Typically cost less than circle hooks Cons High risk of gut hooking or foul hooking a fish Missed strikes due to poor hook setting (more common with beginner anglers) Can be tough to remove if hooked deep into the mouth of a fish best to cut the line The Circle Hook This style of hook is a bit different than that of the J-Hook

The few it does have mostly consist of certain sharks
