Noodle fishing/hook question......
When setting out noodles with live bait (large minnows or small bream) what is the best type hook--a circle hook or a regular shaped hook???? What size do you prefer--4/0, 5/0, 6/0 or bigger????
I have used both types of hooks in the past, but have never used a circle hook with live bait. It looks like to me a live bait could move around easier on a regular hook because of the shape of it, but I don't know. Anyone have any opinions????

Maj....What they are talking about is taking the foam swimming pool noodles and cutting them in pieces about 14 inches long and attaching a hook and line to them and using them to catch catfish instead of using jugs.
I have spent most my life fishing........the rest I wasted.
