Circle Hooks Vs. Lures in Tournaments

jbrob · 06-18-2008, 07:07 AM

Does anyone have any idea on the relative catch numbers on billfish in East Coast Tournaments such as the Hatteras Village, Swansboro and the Big Rock on lures vs. circle hook rigs? these tournaments are essentially Blue Marlin Tournaments where the circle hook seems to me a real disadvantage. This is an important piece of information for anyone seeking to determine the effectiveness of the hooks.
