Change the treble hooks to single siwash hooks....why?
1) safer for kids to handle
2) they snag less
3) easier to release small fish on a single hook - less harm to the fish as well.
4) a treble hooked fish that is netted - can be a disaster (tangle galore)

I replace my spinners with single hooks as well (rooster tails & panther martins)

just my 2 cents.....
