This is a great thread.
I have never used 2 trebles. Always switch out the rear hook for a 6/0 Siwash. I have done it a few times on the belly hook with great results. It just looks strange but the fish cannot get the same leverage with a single that they can with a treble.
Current is difficult at best. Back when I fished the mouth of Narrow River regularly I had my best results on a rigged eel or rigged sluggo. All single hooks. I do not think barbs make a difference.
