Replace trebles with singles

[Angry John]

I have had these new in the package for a while trying to find the right chance to use them.  Got a new worker popper 90 and found the right chance to use it.  Caught a bunch of fish but the front treble came appart.  So the rear kept hanging up, and I move that forward and put the single out back in hopes it will not hang up on the prop.  I used the 1/0 and will have to see if the balance is still good.

Round two.  Testing showed that the large eye let the hook turn and still trap the prop.  I could reduce the issue by starting the retrieve at a crawl, but this only limited hangup's to about 25%.  Inserted a short section of shrink tube.  Should prevent hangups but I have no idea how it will effect hookups.  More testing.

I kind of forgot about this thread but in my experience the hookup ratio has been great with the owner treble replacement hooks. I have not lost a fish that was actually hooked. A few blow ups on the top waters that never connected but you expect that. And they are so easy to remove. I'm glad that I did it.
