I use trailer hooks on my spinnerbaits, buzzbaits, and Chatterbait-style lures. With all three lures, the majority of the fish have the main hook, but there are just enough caught on the trailer hook for me to want to use them. Without them I lack confidence.

This is what I do about 50 percent of the time.

I take a treble hook and cut off one of the three barbs. Then I thread on a plastic trailer of my choice and before I thread it on all the way I put on the treble hook, and then thread the rest of the soft plastic on. It does not hang up as much because the bottom barb is gone and it stays on there well.

No Trailer hook on this one for me.

I'd be pulling grass & weed off it continuously I think.
