9/0 Goma circle hooks...  make sure you weight the bunker down enough so he falls below the school of bunker your fishing around...  let him twitch his lil injured ass all around and get swallowed up by a big ol' bass...  or eaten in half by a blue...haha...

As I have been Instructed :

"8/0 Circle hook with a 30lb 24-30"leader to a swivel.  Add fish finder rig.  4-6 once off weight.  Hook fish in the mouth and up thru the snout.

Leave pole in holder with minimal drag or bait runner set.  Let fish run.. count to 5..  engage bait runner or drag.. lift pole from the holder and reel.. no setting of the hook"  t^

I would agree with rod.... But if your in the center of the bait ball with big bass... Snag and let the bunker drop below the school.... Hope you get a big one
The areas I fish are the ones you said where a wast of time

I also agree with Rod. However, if you are REALLY into the bunker with bass busting on top, JIG/throw metals or plugs for them. Nothing better than a bass hitting a jig/plug up high.  TT^
