First of all most treble hook on mini crank bait is small (size 10) removing two barbs and the hook would get even smaller, the hook up ratio might decrease dramatically (recommended single hook replacement usually longer and wider gap).

As I said, it's a quick and easy fix. I like quick and easy because I'm lazy.

I have not noticed any hooking problems by cutting off barbs. Also, I don't think hook size alone hurts hook ups. I caught my biggest brown trout (a 4-pounder) on a #20 hook. YMMV.

Secondly if the lures are those suspended or slow sink type (most of mine) removing 2 out of three barbs, means removing weight which might impact on running depth.

I don't doubt that but, as mentioned above, there are ways around that, too.

The weight loss of two barbs on a small lure is negligible.

To fine tune a jerkbait just a different size split ring can make a significant impact between slow float, slow sink and true suspended of such jerkbait, just water temp alone can create impact already. This might not matter much to diving type lure though. What can I say I’m a bass fisherman and all of them are crazy lol.

What type of jerk bait are you using to catch crappie?

I always say if one hook is good , three should be better ... right ?
Seriously tho I prefer single hooks for crappie and bass most of the time.
Inshore Reds and speckled trout get a treble under a popping cork if I’m forced to use live bait
