Kate Lamason, the founder of Little Tuna: holding a circle hook that is used aboard the fishing vessels, a circle hook is a fishing hook manufactured so that the point is turned perpendicularly back to the hook shank. This unique design allows it to hook in the corner of the mouth which is much safer for the fish and this hook has proven to have significantly lower bycatch to other fishing hooks used. This is a voluntary hook and we make sure that all of our vessels are using it.
