guess he got away a couple times from some suckers, but not from me!


:.......:

you see it alot with the big blues areond here......

It's happened to me several times with short fluke in the Manasquan river, but I'm sure they didn't break off, more like a smart angler cut the line so the fish could live, rather than yanking it's guts out to save the hook, then releasing it.

I also caught several pickeral in the Newark watershed back when I used to fish freshwater with hooks embedded in thier mouths also.

Up in Canada I've caught walleye with hooks in their mouths.Here at home Smallies seem to eat with multiple piercings!!!LOL
Seen suckers with hooks in em allready cut off like Wink man said!! Trout too!!!

THEY SNAG EM RIGHT??? MY BUDDY TOLD ME BOUT A SALMON RUN IN MICHIGAN, WHERE THEY WONT FEED BUT THE SILVERS EAT UP THERE EGGS FOLLOWING THEM IN......

They don't eat but they do grab at your presentation or try to nose it out of the way.Here the steelheads and Brown trout gobble up the eggs as the Salmon lay em.Some huge ones in this little creek!It's awesome.
Here's a pic of a Brown my buddy caught you could see em gobblin up the eggs right in front of ya!!!

I WILL HAVE TO GIVE IT A GO ONE YEAR!!!

I've seen plenty of blues with hooks and this year one with a popper in its mouth with rattles and every time it shook its head another blue would try and take it away them blues are a little on the unstable side,kinda like me I guess.

A friend of mine caught a striper with a rig in its jaw and when he pulled up the rest of the running line it was still attached to the rod and reel.
