use a stinger, a soft tip rod and reel with high line capacity, back off on the drag and point the rod tip at him, let 'em run

this is one way of doing it,,hook your bait with the main hook then just stick 1 of the trebles in the baits tail and hang on..easy and effective...there are other ways to do it but this would be a good way for you to start out...(i think)...maybe more people will have a better idea....
