My understanding: Guys use single siwash hooks for tuna because the big boys will choke down the whole jig and a single hook sets and holds better that way. Treble hooks work for yt because you get hooked up when the fish grabs the side of the jig, and you often end up foul hooking him in the side of the head half the time as you wind through the strike. Assist hooks are actually designed to work the same way trebles do, hooking the fish incidentally when he grabs the jig from the side.
But then again, I fish bait, so don't listen to me.
