Barbed or Barbless Fishing Hooks

This is where it's all going on. One can ask for advice or general information or simply chew the fat about fishing tackle, tips, and locations.

How do you rig your circle hooks for pannies?

Thanks.

For the kids usually on a float with a pinched worm.... My youngest likes to jig with a bit of split shot about an inch or two from the hook, again with a pinched crawler.

I have also had good luck with perch and circles fished on the bottom either with split shot or a light Carolina rig.
