Octopus hook and Circle hook

- I have been using both an octopus hook and a circle hook every fishing season. Both are excellent choice for majority of the fish out there and I don't think I need any other kind of hook particularly for the fish I am trying to catch. It's just a matter of choosing the right size whenever I go fishing. Excellent hooks.

In your apology it sounded like you were "deeply sorry" for learning the error of your ways... That's how I apologize to my wife too... 😂😂 Great informative and fun video by the way!!!
lol Thank you! that is funny. My wife is used to my antics. lol Thank you again.
self teaching myself how to fish, this vid helped out so much. thanks
I had to learn the hard way when I first started. It is fairly easy once you get the hang of it. It is addicting.
Be safe have fun! Don’t leave any trash behind ! Oh, and I love Mikes lemonade!
LOL!!!! Fun and informative. I love it!!!!
Thank you! I received a comment a few months back that I should do one about circle hooks.... I wrote the script already but I'm still trying to find time to do it. Thank you and have a good day! Do you fish?
@@ndoutdoors813 thanks for the reply. I just celebrated one year of fishing. I love it. I mostly catch catfish. I do pretty good for myself. The more I think about it the more I want to do it. 🎣
Informative and funny!
Thank you. I always laugh at myself when I go and edit the clips. Have a good day!
I like how serious you are. How about those offset circle hooks?
I challenge you to walk out onto a crowded fishing pier with that big hook attached to the line of your rod. Just be sure to have someone follow you with a camera. It would be a howl.
wa ha ha ha ha ha ! what a great idea! I love it! lol Thank you
So my understanding from what I was taught is that the only real difference between an octopus hook and a circle hook is actually the eye of the hook. Octopus hooks have a bent eye and circle hooks have a straight eye but both circle hooks and octopus hooks can have either offset or inline points. It just depends on how the manufacturer wants to manufacture it based on the demand in the market at that point and time.
I completely agree with you. Not to mention State or Gaming regulations. At the end of the day, i ask myself whether one hook is better than the other and in my opinion is no. If u catch a good size fish and you dont get into any issues then it's a good day! What type of hook do you usually use?
@@ndoutdoors813 it depends on the situation on what hook I use if I'm fishing open water or places where there's not a lot of cover or structure I usually go with a circle hook or octopus hook depending on the species I'm fishing for in that situation. but if I'm going for like bluegill in grass or bass in grass or any species that tends to reside in really dense cover that's usually the only time I'll use a J hook. Because J hooks are more compact and won't get tangled up as much as a octopus hook or a circle hook in that situation it's really situational for me because I fish for multiple different species so I don't just fish for one type of fish.
I was so confused for the longest time in this video lol. I know octopus hooks as J-Hooks.
I could be wrong but I think J hook don't have that bend on the eye. Just a straight j shape with a sharp point at the end.
Lol, not only silly but I did learn something.
Thank you, Haven't posted anything since 5 months ago but I'm hoping to start posting around April. Winter always bums me out. Thank you again.
Great vid and subbed 🐬
Thank you!
just what i needed to know. oh, by the way, don't hook the dog. Funny stuff.
I smiled when I saw your comment, I had an incident involving my pup not too long ago that ... lets just say a product of my stupidity. Molly (dog) is OK but I am now an advocate when it comes to fishing hooks and safety lol. Have a good day. Thank you!
circle hug, no good, the fish get outs, I loss many fish🐟
I've tried circle hooks before, but I never have any success with them. I have better luck with octopus hooks or octopus circle hook. Good luck out there!
Which one for blackfish sir
I only fish with the Gamakatsu Circle hooks. They excel with catfish, Striper, and baitfish.
They are good hooks. They don't rust that easy. Keep on fishing my friend! be safe out there and most importantly, have fun!
@@ndoutdoors813 I caught 2 trash fish in an hour on #6 circle but left early when my home brewer nephew said a brew pub was releasing several fresh hop brews so I pulled out early and called it a day. Ate from a Brazilian food truck and had 3 beers that will never be the same now it’s nap time. Life is good, isn’t it.
@@EASTSIDERIDER707 Nice! Very Nice! especially the beer and the food truck 👍
I forgot to ask you... what trash fish do you get? Here they call it toad fish... it's really ugly. @@EASTSIDERIDER707
@@ndoutdoors813 Called Pike Minnow or Squaw Fish. Sometimes Suckers or an occasional Carp.
And now I know....."The Rest of the Story". Thanks, because I had no idea what the difference was.
Hi Harry, me too until I started reading up on it and realized that it was really that simple. I am working on another one like this with circle hooks only. Thanks for the comment.
When using octopus hook with a crab do you set drag tight or loose
Hi, I usually set it slightly tight, enough that you might hear the reel click when the fish pulls hard. What's your target fish?
@@ndoutdoors813 big black drum over 40 inch
Which Hook is better cercle hook or octopus hook?
5 mo later ..... i use octopus hook more than circle hook, i like that it has a longer shaft so u have enough to use for your leader (line). both r good.
That thing you're in we call a shed. Good video it would have been good if you showed how you rig them on the line or trace.
Thanks for the comment, I will surely do that next time. Thank you sir!
What is better for catfish
Hello, I use octopus hook 90% of the time and they work. I don't have that much circle hook in my tackle box.
lol.. subscribed. Except you didnt cover the offset octapus circle hook!
Hi Rick! lol your comment made me laugh lol. You are absolutely right lol... the script on that one is on the way sir. I think its going to be epic lol I'm working on some clips at this moment but don't worry, I have it on my list to do. Thank you for the idea. This is brilliant! off set vs non off set. lol Have a good day.

This shouldn't have been 10 minutes. Just get to the point
You are absolutely right, thanks for the tip. Have a good day sir.
10 minutes and up video can put multiple ads. Give and take. He gives info and in return we give time to watch his video.
I don't know that the barb is "very important". Many people use barbless hooks. You reduce fish throwing a barbless hook by keeping the rod tip up, and keeping tension on the line during retrieve. Barbless hooks cause much less damage to the fish 🙂
"rod tip up"... good to know, thank you! I agree, taking the hook out is 10000% easier without the barb.
@@ndoutdoors813 I've most recently used barbless circle hooks for largemouth. I quite like them. I bought a 150 pack on Amazon for $12 cad
Hilarious
Thanks, I hope it is informative as much as it is entertaining lol
A Barb does not hold the fish on the hook it holds the bait on the hook if your fishing a lure crush the Barb on the hook you will find you will land more fish that way don't believe me do your own research a barb will not set as fast as a hook without a barb many studies on this they all say a hook without a Barb is better
Thanks for the tip. I've been crushing my barb since the end of 2021 and it does make a huge difference. I totally agree with what you said plus it is effortless to unhook the fish. Thanks again.
Lol
LMFAO
A thousand blah blah😂😂 nothing useful
