I think SWMB8R is out of town, so I'll tell it. The way to rig the 9" bait is with a 2/0 treble. Take some 80lb wire and crimp it to the eye (where you tie your line on). Run it about 1.5". Crimp on the 2/0 treble. Put one prong of the treble in the belly of the bait. The hook will sit right where the "gills" of the bait come together. That's straight from the guys who make the bait. The 7" you don't have to trap rig. But it would be the same rig with a 1/0 treble if you did.
