Using plugs is great for t-sharks. It's a good idea to remove the middle treble so that it ca't be used against you.

Amen! Where was that advice when I needed it!! Having a Thresher and your hand attached to the same Lure can ruin your day!

That happened to me once with a spotty. It sucked. The thought of it happening with a big rapala and a T makes me want to puke.

Most anglers greatest fear with Tsharks is the tail, specifically with a lure attached to it. At least we don't use BOM's on the kayak. Nothing like a pound of lead and hooks swinging on the end of a 12' club .

Some guys also replace all the treble hooks on plugs with single hooks, that way a mouth hook is more likely, plus you get a different fight. Not just snag and drag.

Someone else told me this...
Worst case scenario, T shark with a plug in the tail slaps you, the plug is now stuck to you too, you can't hang on and the T swims away, with you attached and getting dragged behind.

Just use common sense and be careful.
