Default Circle shrimp s/w
A few moons ago I ordered some circle hooks size 1 for worm fishing and these turned up! goodness know what they are, but the small one is a size 10

Well not being one to waste things I clamped 1 in the vice and with sea fishing in mind tied this shrimpish thing, the back is bug bond.
Don't know what it will catch if anything, but will try it sometime.

The Polar Fiber Minnow is well-suited to a circle hook and will take bass.
