Single hooks on topwater?

When a fish hits a topwater with a circle hook do you hookset any differently than a regular treble hook topwater?

Because circle hooks pretty much set themselves, as they were designed to do, I usually just start reeling in. I sometimes "set" the hook but that is more out of habit from years of doing so with conventional hooks.
