Why trebles

JUST FISHEN'

I've always hated how hard on smaller salmon the trebles are, plus the larger fish are harder to hang onto because of trebles coming loose or straightening out. Large single siwash hooks on spoons and plugs have a better bite in the fishes mouth and therefore less fish get away with them. What I do and have good luck with is put a single 3/0 or 4/0 siwash on a 6 bead chain swivel, run it through the plastic head and let it hang along side the anchovie. It still gives the bait a nice spin, and few fish get away when hooked. Give that a try, it works for me!
