Rigging Three Hooks, One line

[DailyAngler]

Im very grateful to the members of this site who like to share techniques (you know who you are) I have learned a ton from here over the years so thank you. In the spirit of sharing ill add my little bit:

Ever since we could legally use 3 baited hooks/jigs/lures/flies Ive spent a lot of time thinking about, experimenting with, and untangling different rigs. Here is my favorite method. Equally good for ice, vertical jigging, casting, trolling. Forgive my primative illustration.

You need: Angled jig hooks without lead, heavy flouro leader ( I use 17lb.), barrel and snap swivel or clip.

 finished ice rig on the left, size 14 and 10 jig hooks.  Size 6 jig hook on the right.

 size 6 jig hook with snell knot

 diagram, im no artist.

Questions? Feedback? Let me know your method for triple hooks. 

Thank you,
Eric

P.S. I like to use a barrel swivel between the main line and leader for ice fishing and a double uni knot for casting.  I like 18"-24" between hooks. You will find it can be tricky to deal with but has many advantages in the water.
