Tying Trebles

[horsehunter]

So when I snell single hooks with either an upturned or downturned eye they hang perfectly straight, but trebles whether commercially snelled or my own always hang canted to one side. Maybe they straighten in the water from the pressure or maybe it doesn't matter to the fish but it bugs the hell out of me.

Palomar or clinch knot if you want them to hang straight.

I bend the eye of the treble hook when I snell them, just like the octopus hooks

I go with spoonfed's suggestion. Ii used to snell my hooks but for years now use the knots much quicker and they work fine with either knot mentioned.

What Spoon said!

I have broken them when trying to bend them . Not all the time but enough to make me stop trying to bend them at 75¢ + each  . 

 

I have tried alot of different ways . I have even put a split ring on the treble and Palomar to that so hook all ways trails straight.

He may be in trouble but I did this exact system and glad I did.
