It all depends on the size of the sucker. Smaller suckers fished under a bobber can be hooked with one treble hook under the dorsal fin. Larger suckers 10 to 14 inches can be rigged with a harness with a hook in the back and a single hook in the lip. Large suckers 14" and up, are good for lift off rigs. They have more mass and it is easier to rip the rubber-band to get the correct hook set.

I use the Herbie Rig, I have tried alot of diffrent rigs and found the Herbie Rig the best. I like the safety pin on them. I can use the same sucker for 2 and sometimes 3 days due to not jamming a hook into the side of the sucker. After a day of fishing I take the rig off of them and put back in the live well, next day I put pin back in same holes.
