He doesn’t look legal anyways

Elite net guy

Stfu. U ever bass fished? Nope

Womp womp, were legally allowed to fish them because theres enough that even 100’s of mistakes can happen and no harm no foul to the species whatsoever

In Finland we eat a lot of the fish that we catch

Or need to learn how to tie a knot

🎣 ❌🤲✅

I’m not good enough to go barbless 😂

If u use a barbless hook then the fish will come off

I think this is caused by bass fisherman trying trout fishing for once and treating the trout as if there bass setting the hook way to hard

That’s not from hooks. Barbed hooks can cause some damage but nothing like that. That fish probably has some sort of bacterial infection, or a fungal infection. Not to mention it doesn’t seem to be slowing down the fish. Those wounds are old and that fish looks well fed. So go grab you fly pole and go feel holier than thou somewhere else.

It's not only beacuse of barbed hooks its also caused by people seeting the hook like they have a 600 pound goliath grouper

CAP theye damage even more by wiggeling around in there mouths

Remember guys, barbed hooks = down syndrome fish. Yall be safe

Even though it's in south Alaska. That were NOT anglers. That was a bear, a bird or any predator but not a lure 😂

We have to use barbles but the natives get to use a net how the he'll is that fair

It's probably just an irresponsible fisherman/kid

Tell me you know nothing about fishing without telling me. Barbed hooks didn’t do that and won’t do that unless you’re an absolute dummy.

Thats bait sir 😂😂😂

I took the barbs off my weighted trouble hook It still does just as good

That's not from a barb hook

In my part of the world, only City Slickers do catch'n release... We fish to consume it...

I eat fish that i catch so no

And barbless hooks takes more skill cause they can slip off easier and gives the fish a more fair fight

I think this is not caused by hooks

Why do barbed hooks cause that, I thought that was just from people setting the hook too hard or holding it by the mouth when they already damaged the jaw after doing so

Middle of Alaska and thinks a hook did that

Seal?

Dinner

😂

Thats def some treble hook asshole. A single hook with a barb IS NOT GUNNA DO THAT!!! NO FUCKING WAY!!!

Little more explanation please?

Always used barbless

What kind of reel is that purple one?

That's not scotland

Thanks for the report!!

biggest trout i’ve caught was a 24in speckled trout

bet that trout felt like you hooked a shark on that fly set up😂

Fun catch!

Could you catch those on a deep sea reel easier?

Been rocking them for the last 4 months. Absolutely love them. Put hardbite cleats in them, and you won't be sorry. Super comfortable for hiking remote blue lines. Holding up good too.

Great video, can't wait to get down to the mine!

Thanks for the video, I'm 8 days out from heading that way. Just curious you stopped fishing at 2 silvers. Isn't Bird creek considered part of the Anchorage bowl so the limit is 3? I may have missed an EO making it 2 fish.

This is fantastic! So happy to see some chrome! Great report!
