    They're cheap and for perch fishing I usually throw the rig away when a hook breaks. 90% of the perch I catch are on the bottom hook. After 500 fish (probably exaggerating), the crimps tend to weaken the mono. I figure if a hook breaks off, it's time for a new rig. These things can't cost more than a dollar or two each if you make them yourself. (I'm speaking exclusively about the ones I make referenced in post #10)

    I've also been known to keep fishing the other two hooks for a while. When the bite is hot, sometimes it doesn't matter.

    OK I can't figure out how to post a video from my phone to here. So I made a video and posted it on my Facebook page. I don't think you have to have an account on Facebook to watch it. This is how I make my Skipper 9 style perch rigs. Hope it helps. https://m.facebook.com/Walleye2go/?ref=bookmarks

    If the bottom hook breaks on a skipper9 rig, I just cut the bottom hook off and it becomes a 2 hook rig, works just as well !!! Just tie sinker to new bottom...
