Ditto.

FYI, too long way better than too short.

If that trailing hook is in the bait, you're gonna be mortally wounding most of your catch.

I prefer the hangback trailer. I really don't think it's possible to make it too long.

You'll nail more short strikes, and virtually eliminate the risk of a mortal hooking wound since the overwhelming majority of the fish will be hooked from the outside in.
