another thing is that I think california law states 2 hooks max. for flatfalls and SPJ, i always set both hooks on the top. It's personal preference and I don't think putting them on the bottom would make much of a difference.
Yep, 2 hook max for ground fish I fish it in the same configuration, 2 hooks at the top, no hooks at the "bottom". I also notice that I snag less without the bottom hooks.
