Why One Hook?
Of course you need at least one, unless you are just keeping score by the number of strikes, but what extra trebles do mostly is add drag and dampen the action of a lure.
Homing in on the eye of the lure, most fish are hooked first on the front treble. The rest of the hooks dangling out behind are available to be hung on any obstruction the fish might
get into often pulling free. Not to mention, one hook is a lot easier on you and the fish.
Suggested Tackle and Rigging
A medium action graphite rod casting modern braid will allow you to work this lure with the least amount of effort on your part. Because the Finger is so lively, a
leader of relatively stiffer monofilament will reduce hook fouling. Using a triple surgeon or uni knot, tie the leader directly to the braid and secure the lure with a loop knot.
Methods of Retrieval
The design of this bait allows a wide range of retrieves. With the rod held low, reel slowly while rhythmically twitching the rod. The lure will dart from side
to side and you are walking the dog. There are many variations to this but it is one of the most effective retrieves for all gamefish. Again with the rod low reel the lure under water,
begin twitching and it will dart and walk subsurface. This is often effective when the fish are unwilling to come all the way up to strike. Another good technique is to reel just fast
enough to make the lure slowly crawl along the surface. Due to temperature, level of light and many other mysterious factors, fish can be very specific about the type of retrieve they will
respond to from one day to the next. Gamefish will go out of their way to pick the injured minnow out of a school because it is easier to catch. The lure that is worked erratically
often will draw the strike.
