Location: lansing, il | Tackle companies like myself, like to know what the average guy likes, wants, and needs. we try to cater to them for obvious reasons, while at the same time making it as high quality and productive as possible.
the cool thing is that with sucker harnesses there are a ton of options out there to suit everyones needs. I dont think any one is better than another, it just depends on what works best for the person using it. I am partial to mine however I am sure there are people who dont like it and wont use it. I dont have a problem with that.
Brewcrew, as far as the single hook goes, we usally feel the fish flip the sucker and then set the hooks straight over the top of the fish. its not really designed to trail way behind the boat. it is most affective when you are able to position yourself over the top of the fish and once you feel the "Tap Tap" (the sucker being flipped) you put the screws to em. this is not a long waiting period by any means, it happens in a matter of seconds, usally no more than 30. We are not letting the musky swallow the bait by any means. I would say 90% of the muskies we have boated have been right in the upper jaw or lip. The other nice thing about one treble is that your not likely to wind up with that second treble that is usally swinging around wind up in your hand or in the gills of the fish.
