When fishing offshore tournament if the lure has meat on it the lure must be rigged with a circle hook. Believe me once you learn what hook to use in a particular situation they will grow on you.

Mike,
That's what I would have to learn, not how to use them, but what size hook for livelinning. I have used them for cut bait and they work OK, but I miss "setting the hook" and either snapping the rod on the roof or smacking someone in the face:roll eyes:
It just seems like every time someone new is elected to office, they feel that they have to pass some legislation of their own so they have a bill on it with their name (or co-sponsor a bill). Enough regulations
