Lot of options, with most good. I'm perfectly happy with Mustads for bait.
But any you buy should be OFFSET at least a little. Worst I've ever used were some Eagle Claws that didn't have an offset. Man, talk about a bunch of missed hits.... All was well after I took them for a short visit to my bench vise. Added a little offset, and then they started fishing just fine."Lay in the weeds and wait, and when you get your chance to say something, say something good."

Page 397 on hook threading and the figure on 407 as its numbered on the document was my simple take away...I still HATE circle hooks off a kayak... that is a whole different story though.
