				 Re: nice keeper 
 
			
			I missed about 10 runoffs that night!!! >:( I boated only 1 fish, 38".  batting .100 really sux!
 Anyone using Gamigatsu (sp?) "Octopus hooks"? Not the "Octopus Circle hooks". The offset is less on the non-circle hooks. I was trying the "no Set" method as in using circle hooks, tried the "set" method as in regular hooks. I've had pretty good luck with circle hooks in the past. It is tough to get in the habit of NOT setting the hook and just reeling. Circles do result in nice hook sets, always hooks em right in the corner of the mouth.
 
 I was letting the fish run for several seconds but kept missing them. Oh well, can't really complain. Last 2 trips I've boated 4 Bass from 36" to 42" (phesters).
