    Ah ok. So they're really only for bait.

    Mostly for live bait and I've seen some people who use them on a drop shot....They wouldn't work well at all for texas rigging

    Not so fast my friend!

    Worms and flukes work well with circles. Just swim them back very slowly, even let them drop slowly, then as said before, raise the rod and take up the slack. Don't "set" the hook.

    I change the hooks in all my catfish dip bait worms to 5/0 circles. Works great unless they eat the bait and don't swim off. They then can swallow it deep just like any other hook.
