I like single siwash tied with bucktail on poppers but not on spook types.

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

Spooks: plain treble hook. Bucktail will kill the action.

Poppers: mostly plain treble hook. Most of mine I set up to walk the dog. Bucktail can kill that action. No bluefish down here, so I go with a treble. When I come north, I switch out the treble with a single on some to throw when the bluefish are around.
