It is more difficult to tie treble hooks due to the thick shank on most treble hooks, but it can be done. You may need to squeeze the tool closed around the shank.

The only knot you can toe with this tool is a clinch knot. It doesn't work well with small jig heads and you don't need it for the larger ones. I returned it. Buy a pair of reading glasses at a dollar store instead.
