Frank, I’d like to replace the treble hooks on my topwater plugs with single hooks; hoping for less damage to the fish I release and my fingers. What size and type hook should I try? Or would snipping off one or two of the hooks on each treble accomplish the same thing? I use Storm Chug Bugs, Bagley Jumping/Finger Mullet, and Zara Spook Jrs. Thanks. John W.
John: I’d try snipping the trebles. I’ve tried switching to single hooks on a few lures and it always seems to alter the action. Also reduces the number of hookups dramatically. Just snip the barb part, not the whole bend of the hook - the idea is to change the weight balance as little as possible. Good luck. FS

Can you tell me when the 2008 Outdoor Expo is scheduled for and how I can get exhibitor information?
