This offset circle design is the perfect deepwater bottom fishing hook with “paternoster” dropper-style rigs or normal boat fishing with cut baits. When using this hook, anglers do not strike on the bite, rather the fish is allowed to run with the bait and as the line comes tight, the hook will roll into the corner of the fish’s mouth. This is a great hook to use for lazy rigs fished from a rod holder as fish simply hook themselves.
