>>2787521do you mean getting tangled in the hooks? if so just remove the front hook and try. and don't use a swivel because that adds weight to the front which makes it want to cast nose first or spin mid-air instead of like it's supposed to. a lot of rapalas come with hooks that are way too big and it causes all sorts of tangles. both hooks frequently getting hung together, front hook getting hung on the lip, etc. pic rel came with hooks that were noticeably larger and they would get all fucked up damn near every other cast. I dunno what they were thinking. rapala makes good lures but a lot of them need tweaking. as long as it doesn't cause undesired changes to the action, I almost always remove the front hook from small hardbaits. helps to get snagged on shit underwater less and lose your lure also.
