Slick_Jig 6 Report post Posted March 19, 2009 Does anyone have any experience with using multiple hooks on 1 line. I was planning on trying this out for lake trout, any suggestions, depth, separation between hooks? Quote Gone Fishing Men and fish are alike.

Chuck 19 Report post Posted March 19, 2009 Hey Cp Every knot you put in your line is a weak link, plus you still have the problem with minnows tangling up on your line creating knots "not so good' specially if you have the monster at the hole and snap...goodbye...not even a picture Myself I like to stick with the single hook or jig with a stinger or spoons if their biting you won"t need the extra hook That's just me though Chuck Quote Git "er done Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Monks 164 Report post Posted March 20, 2009 Does anyone have any experience with using multiple hooks on 1 line. I was planning on trying this out for lake trout, any suggestions, depth, separation between hooks? I usually always use two. Fished Big Trout Lake North of Ear Falls a lot and I would tie a palomar not on the top tube jig with a 3/8 ounce jig and then a typical knot on the bottom tube with a heavier jig or a jigging sppon. Never had a fish break the line but just be careful near the hole if the fish is on the bottom hook not to catch the top tube or jig. Usually seperated them 12 - 18 inches. Do the same thing with walleyes, tie a drop shot hook about 12-16 inches up with a palomar knot and then a 3/8 or 1/4 ounce jig below it instead of just a weight, works great.
