Location: Northern Wisconsin		A couple questions:

1) Does anyone else avoid or modify their lures so they do NOT have three trebles. I just find that sometimes three hooks cause more problems with unhooking fish and I haven't noticed better hooking % compared to two hooks. What are your thoughts on this?

2) Do you guys leave smaller sized hooks on or change them out for bigger ones? For example, lures like the shallow raider have some smaller trebles, I am thinking of going up a size and only using two (front and back). Anyone else do this

Location: Eastern Ontario		When removing the center hook I go up one size on the other two on my suicks I remove the tail hook as this is the one that swings around and catches them near the eye
