The way the hooks are tied close and further back is definitely a plus on the hook ups.
Most salmon will swat at a lure 2 or more times before they hook up. If you place the hooks back, they'll be lucky not to get hooked the first time.

Those are 5/0 hooks and should be ok. If you're missing fish on 5/0, you can set the hooks even further back or go to a larger size. I generally like the lead hook about 2/3 back from the tenacles (both hook points not impeded).

I use the 5/0 throughout the year with the exception of summer.

I might add.... for even more hook-ups, add a med or larger Cheater in front of that B2. Just charge the B2 with a flash... The Cheater make a tremendous amount of nosie in the water. This will surely pi$$ them Kings off
