Perfect answer.

am i the only one whose had the hooks pull out on them?

Went to the outer cape, fished a day and a half.......nothing but schoolies. Stopped at a spot for lunch and saw a school......gear goes back on (for the 3rd time that day) Got one fish from the school only to have the rear treble pop on me.

Love the action & the chicken scratch color, but my confidence has been shaken.

The 7' Red Fins have two sets of treble hooks not three.

I've seen that happen with their pencils but never a Red Fin.
Some of the old salts down here have told me the older Red Fins with the lines in the side are much better.
