    No, it does not work like a circle hook, you just set the hook as normal. They work well.

    Great hooks IMO, the red will flake off though and the gold will show. I bought black chrome this time, they were cheaper.

    Is it true that sickle hooks have a tendency to hook fish in the roof of the mouth.

    Red sickle hooks are all I use. About 90% of the time hooked in the roof of the mouth.

    Reggie ... it's true that ALL jigs, regardless of hook style, have a tendency to hook a fish in the roof of the mouth. But, that's more a function of design (hook always points up) than it is hook style.
