Need some answers guys. These are 8 inch jerkbaits. We are still in the process of "perfecting" them but do you think two hooks or three hooks would be better? Also I would appreciate any other ideas on these.

excuse the sand on the nose of the bottom one. just finished testing them and must have had some sand on it when pulling up over the bank. These have an erratic action but glide about a foot from side to side.

id go with three. If possible, spread the body hangers out and/or go with mustad round bend short shank trebles.

Also agree with ^^^^^^^^^, always make sure you don't have hooks tangle on the cast, just by looking i can tell they would by your picture.

I would build them with three hooks. That way when you decide to try to do squirrely versions, everything is spaced out, and just replace the back hook area with a mount for the plastic.
