Pollack about same length as macs. Trolling speed? They just inhale the pollack? Advantage of circle hook is you really don't have to "set the hook". While trolling tendency is to self-hook.

Given the diversity of the human species, there is no “normal” human genome sequence. We are all mutants.

i think it also matters what way the fish runs once it picks the bait up.

i know the last few times i used circle hooks and live bait/ chunks, the fish that ran left to right where all hooked in the corner of the mouth but the fish that run straight out were hooked deeper in the mouth.
