So if your hooks are size 6 or larger, you can only have three lures. Those three lures can have any number of hooks - for example, three crankbaits would be fine. If you use more than three lures, only one can have a single hook. So you could use five swimbaits or spinnerbaits on an umbrella rig, but you have to cut off all the hooks but one single hook.

Less than size 6 (NOT less than and including), you can have as many lures as you want.

Attachment to the arm doesn't make any difference. Even a sabiki rig falls under this rule as an "array of lures" even though it has no umbrella arms.

Thanks for clearing that up.

I wish they'd make a little more cut and dry when they revist the reg.
