Hi there DrownedDesertRat,
The Octopus style hook has an extra wide gap rounded shape for a better hookup percentage. It is a reverse offset hook, a little longer shank and turned up eye with makes it good for snelling specifically for mooching setups. It is the type of hook popular in both fresh and saltwater for toothy critters.
Hope this helps.
