When you say
the back of the bait are you referring to the tail? As far as I know the only time you should tail hook a fish is if you're fly lining and that should only be done with the larger baits. Tail hooking a bait that you plan to troll would instantly kill or 'drown' the bait because you're pushing water in thru its gills instead of allowing water to push out.
