Heed that good advice. Getting three treble hooks out of a cuda is a pain. The single fixed hook is good advice.
I was trying to unhook a large cuda from a repala with it hanging off the side of my kayak, and had a big Knot head rip it right out of my hand. He almost flipped me. I thought it was a shark for a milla -secend. I keep thinking what would of happened had one of those hooks gone in my hand.
