So when you think a drum picks up the bait do you set the hook or allow it to swim off with a steady tension on the rod expecting the circle hook to do the work?

Generally speaking you would allow the hook to set itself since you don't set the hook on a circle hook you just real down on it. When the rod loads up usually the fish has already hooked itself.you just keep tension on the line.
