What's your experience?
Are you using the 9" sluggo or a smaller version? I fish both single and two-hook rigged sluggos and the hook-up ratio is better with two hooks for obvious reasons. I do not notice any less action with two hooks but once I add the sluggo weights I find the action is affected. One thing for sure is that they are fish magnets and if fish are not hitting them, fish are simply not there. I have watched bass eat a sluggo that was simply laying on a submerged rock!
