I would swap out the rear treble for single dressed siwash hook. You occasionally get a bass on the back hook and you get most of your blues on the back hook. Some people don't want anything to do with catching blues - but I think blues are excellent sport.

If you swap out the treble for a dressed siwash with in white, yellow, or chartreuse with a little pearl flashabou, or some silver flash tied in, you'll find you get more bass on the tail hook, especially at dawn and dusk. Sometimes that tail hook hooking into the plates provides a fail-safe, helping ensure that you land the fish when the trebles start to open.
