I remove the middle set of hooks on many of my larger lures and have not noticed any more or less action. To me it makes sence. I fish a lot at night and I dont want to be pulling three hooks out of a thrashing bluefish.

thats why they call it fishing not catching

That was kind of my thought too.Three sets of trebles at night is way to much to deal with.

I modify the 6" bombers in two different ways. They either get a 1/0 6x treble front and back (skip the middle hanger) or 1/0 6x trebles on each belly hanger and a flag tied with small hackles on the tail.
