Sometimes lures that normally can not act properly in strong tides, with single hooks can. They are light, sharp and very strong!īetter buoyancy: In comparison with the treble hooks, single hooks show a much less resistance during use and this enhances the lures action in most cases. They are designed to fit on lures and this is why they have the ring on parallel position with the hook so they can stay properly. The discreet presence of the single hooks can fool even the most smart fish. Setting the hook: Usually the power and tense of the rod are not enough to push deep two or more points that happened to touch the fish while striking, so it is necessary to set the hooks on the slightest touch of it. The lure does not act properly and nothing bites it. And we all know that when we have something on our lure, two things happen. Stowaways: Treble hooks are masters to take souvenirs in their way like pieces of plastic, weeds etc. And no matter how much you will pull and shake it, it will never let go the rock. Sometimes you lose the lure from the first “sit” on the bottom. Snagging: If you are a fan of using sinking lures close to the bottom, you will know what I mean. Well this might sound like not a big thing for many of you but for me is a top priority one. This problem gets bigger when the sea is calm. Noise: As someone can figure out, two or more metallic things with their splits on a “swimming” lure, make a hell of a noise! Some of you might say that lures do have balls inside to produce noise, but I’m about to inform you that is different a noise that is produced from the inside of the lure than from outside. A treble hook due to its mass, is really something that is hard to hide it, and two or more trebles on a slim lure are a big deal. Visibility: Another problem has to do with visibility. This wear off appears on the lures with an arch or “rainbow” shape. The sharpest the trebles are, the larger the problem becomes. Even lures with strong finish tend to wear off to the spots the trebles scratch while in use and lures with weaker finish show remarkable damage even from the first day. First and most important is the scratching of the finish. So the “land” to “lose” ratio especially on the bad days might be equal.įinish wear off: The treble hooks may be the masters of “hooking” but this same advantage carries a lot of disadvantages. Hook offs: This is another result of the very easy to hook character they have, since some hook ups are very frivolous and end up by tearing the skin or flesh. So treble hooks are really effective and we must never forget how many fish we have captured from the back, the tail or the sides, result of a bad strike or an effort of the fish to simply push the “intruder” out of its territory. When two or more treble hooks manage to hook on the fish, they destroy its swim and make it easier to land. Also during the run, free trebles tend to hook also on the fish, securing it. Let’s see the advantages:Įxcellent hook up: The three points of each treble hook are remarkable guardians and often grab the attacking fish, no matter the side. Light, razor sharp, extra strong, extra wide and many more, each for a purpose and all to fit on lures, usually hard ones. There are many types in the market to fit to all our needs. We are about to see the advantages and disadvantages of them and if it worth to replace the 9 points of a three treble hook lure with only 3. The story goes for the single hooks, a more recent “fashion” that even if it appeared before many years, only now started to be more regular on lures straight from the factory and not as an alchemy experiment by individuals. Some of you love them, some of you look at them suspicious and some don’t even wanna look at them. “No Limits” Custom Spools by Studio Ocean Mark.The New colors of Needle Jigs “Mackerel Ayu”, “Pink Belly Sardine” and “Full Glow”.Cast Hacker by Savage Gear: A complete Sinking Pencil range!.
