Just took my boat storage and I was organizing my tackle box, and came across a couple of packets of green mtn grabbers with 3 hooks.Now I believe I read somewhere that vermont has a 2 hook limit!!! These rigs are made here in vermont !!!! I guess Im a little confused!!!!Sleeps

The way I understand it;
A grabber is considered a 'lure'...
You are allowed 2 lures or 3 flies per line, and as of now you are allowed 2 lines per person for 'angling'...
From page 48 current digest:
A person may take fish only by using not
more than two lines of which he or she has immediate control.
Each line may not have more than two baited hooks, or three
artificial flies or two lures with or without bait.

A "lure" may be baited or unbaited, and still considered a "lure"... A bare hook on the line, with or without bait, is still a single "hook"... As far as I can tell, there is no limit to the number of 'hooks' you can have on a 'lure'... With or without bait... Clear as mud, eh?  |

Look at it this way: a crankbait with two treble hooks on it has a total of six hook points.....so I think three hooks is OK on a grabber. Personally I cut the third one off usually because it seems to make it easier to work with, then I use all the left over hooks and tie my own grabber ;D
