I live in Japan, but fish Cali a couple times a year.
Almost all the jerkbaits I fish (Rapala, Lucky Craft, Megabass) have three treble hooks, or a total of 9 hooks.
Is this illegal?

As for the umbrellas, I can not officially answer that question on this forum.

As in the above posts, pls. check with the DFG before you try your "New" rig. Good luck.
