Another rigging question
When drift fishing live bait I’m curious the thought process behind using a treble hook instead of a J style hook?

More points means better chance of one sticking.

A small treble will usually get a king hooked fairly deep also, every bit helps. I have always noticed Spanish fishing with little lys and using spoons, most single hookups occur on the edge of the mouth, similar to bass fishing with a plastic worm
Well, after several hours making phone calls, I was able to track down a certain manufacturer’s service center in California. Thankfully, they agreed to send out my needed parts. These were left over...
You would think I would know this!
