if you think about it the treble hooks is creating drag in the water which in turn keeps the lure running the the right way up... this helps the action of the lure do what it designed to do best....

so adding weigh to these areas to counter the removal of the trebles is recommended...
either you replace it so the single hook is pointed down in a fixed position ie rubber band or some other fixture grove in the body.... trail and error is the key, get it right or your wasting your time....

I'll be putting trebles back on my mini- poppers and will crush one or two of the barbs.

Definitely stuffs up the action as the kevlar assists I've been using turn the poppers on there side.

crush all the barbs dood and be careful to use trebles of similar size if upgrading to owner(very strong) ones for example...If you go bigger it could ruin the action of the popper Wink

if you are having trouble with the weight on your poppers and stickbaits by using singles then change to smaller Hayes hook's. they are pretty heavy and work well on lures that need more weight in the water.]]> Mon, 07 Jun 2010 19:44:25 +0000 https://www.fishing.net.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=52444&PID=775516&title=treble-hooks-on-poppers-diving-lures#775516 <![CDATA[Treble hooks on poppers/diving lures : Whilst doubles and trebles of...]]> https://www.fishing.net.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=52444&PID=775341&title=treble-hooks-on-poppers-diving-lures#775341 Author: Catchelot

Whilst doubles and trebles of today are strong and of better quality and of course some lures (minnow/stick/popper) are designed around them I just hate the damage they do to small Kings and releasable fish and with these type of lures we use two.

So I would rather run singles or at least one double if I have to.

Some people like trebles, some dont. How about a compromise, doubles. I liked these strong looking doubles, put them on some poppers I have made. With a relatively narrow front face, it's like a Popper-stick? Haven't tried them in action yet. One thing - they are certainly far cheaper than bought poppers, cost me about $7 each.

Go Barbless, much better for the fish and ginga's hand

, Nomad practiced this before abolishing trebles completely with great success, even their singles and 'Baker' rigged doubles are barbles or have quashed barbs.
Some stickbaits need the belly treble to work effectively, the resistance on the hook works as a pivotal point to give the stickbaits their below surface action, a prime example is the Nomad [Heru] Ulua, although an assist hook on the nose helps it get get down and boogie

My question is if you are using nomad stickbaits and poppers would they not be designed to run the hooks in the way they recommend on there website?

the nomad poppers are avaliable under so many different names around the world and have been around for quite a while now so I dont think its the case that they only be fished the way nomad charters fish them.
