Just wondering if anyone has experimented with running singles on these? I know the recommended rigging is with 4/0 owner trebles (115gram bait) and they swim really nicely but I quite like singles. I would experiment myself but I'm unable to cast at the moment after a shoulder op.

Pico, I know a few anglers out there find running just a large single on the rear hanger of the Dart bait produces a pretty nice action.
