i had the same problem and just started crushing the barb on the rear hook. at least its easy to get out now. taking in off really throws them off.

Maybe try a bucktail tag, no hook. If it slows the wiggle too much, give it a slight haircut. At some point you should get the same wiggle it had with the treble on the back. Another option is to bend the points into the shank of the hook. This gives the same weight and drag as a treble but the lollipops won't hook anything.
