It's an unfortunate occurrence for all anglers - sometimes fish swallow the bait resulting in your hook point being buried deep in the gullet with little chance of safe removal through conventional means.

We owe the fish and resource our best effort at clean extraction.
The safest and most expedient method for a clean removal is rolling the hook backward via needle nose entry through the gills. Wired2Fish's Mitch Anderson demonstrates the procedure that easily removes the deepest hooks with little tear or damage to the fish beyond the initial hookset and fight. Let 'em go to grow and fight another day with a high probability of survival!

THANK YOU!!!!! As the Conservation Director for the NY BN,I have shown many people this easy, fish saving technique!! I am constantly amazed at the amount of people that still insist on cutting the line/leaving the bass with this impaled hook inside. Old wives tale that it will rust out. Maybe years ago when hooks were not the quality metal they are today, but I'm pretty sure most fish today would eventually be compromised enough by remaining hooks to either succumb because of inability to feed /swallow properly, or from eventual internal complications resulting from the internal hook injury. In smaller fish, it helps to have a large pair of stainless steel hemostats - they are very smooth and have less potential for gill injury!! BRAVO!!!! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!!

@dscience8865 6 лет назад

Beautiful work. You can also knock down all hook barbs prior to heading out on the water. I've done this for years and haven't noticed any fish getting off the line. Hooks come out like needles without the barbs. No harm no foul.

@brianwedderburn2505 Год назад

I also smash all my barbs and don’t notice many fish getting off the hook. If fishermen can catch steelhead without barbs I can catch bass. Plus, I don’t want to risk having a barbed hook getting under my skin either. I think since I mostly use wide gap hooks that helps keep them on the hook too.

@jeffreydhill Год назад

I've done this in the past though fish do get off more often in my experience, but that's OK if you're catch and release for recreation. Keeping line tension at all times is key to keep them on. Story time: Ill never forget a good 15 yrs back I was fishing some laydowns with my Dad and after a brutal fight that pulled the nose of the boat around I lost a beautiful 4+ lb smallmouth (wouldve been my personal best at the time) just as it got to the boat due to a barbless hook and letting line tension ease for just a moment as I bent down to grab em. I literally watched the hook slip out as I was reaching and the fish casually swim away. 😅 I never let tension slack again! Lesson learned!

@freighttrain7143 4 месяца назад

If you look at the video, when he starts moving the hook, the fish OPENS the gut to let the hook out. It's muscle they can control. Which is to say, those fish that you cut the line and put them back? They just opened their throat(as easy as you open your mouth) and spit the hook out. MOST LIKELY, every fish you released without messing with that hook, lived just fine after. Studies have been done and they have found that the vast majority of these incidents result in the fish spitting the hook, and ones that ended up totally swallowing the hook can sometimes successfully pass it, too(the bigger the hook the harder it was to pass it). Overwhelming majority survive unharmed. But with THIS technique, you can KNOW you caused the fish no harm before you put them back.

@musicandcoffee2853 6 лет назад

What a great tip! Thanks SO MUCH! If I ever gut hook a fish I would always quit fishing for the day because that’s my rule. I hate it when that happens but now I have a way to fix that without hurting the fish 👍

@jlstarman 6 лет назад

This is a very helpful video. I thought I might add that when I am catching and release, I usually take a pair of plyers and crimp the barb of the hook. Of course, to keep from losing them you must keep pressure on the line. It's a bit more challenging but a lot of fun. And getting the hook out without the barb is much easier.

@cordmiller679 4 года назад

thanks for posting this, last year I killed a bass because I couldn't get the hook out correctly and I couldn't go fishing for 6 months because I felt so bad. Now I feel more comfortable knowing how to prevent doing the same after watching this.

already have caught a 30# Blue Cat off of these (going to try to get a 60#+ next year). ru-vid.comUgkxzXmlErSqVAEGWFEKO530BvTqFDw53QW3 Definitely very strong, and sharp. Additionally, the gap is wide enough to actually hook a fish (not always the case with circle hooks). I purchased the 8/0, but probably should have got the 9/0 (they seem slightly smaller than other 8/0 hooks). Additionally, having the point in-line helps if you drift fish. I have yet to get a serious snag with one of these hooks.

This is excellent advice. As you say, you might lose a few, but a small price to pay. Thanks!

@KAYSBRANCH 3 месяца назад

That's what I do. I like worm fishing, but in my opinion it's the most deadly form of hook fishing. By the time you are certain a hook set is warranted, many times the bass has begun to swallow the worm and sadly the hook. The set normally jams the tip into the soft tissue. Smashing the barb has helped me remove hooks from the top down. I have used the under gill approach. It also helps to cut the line and re tie.

@evaone4286 2 месяца назад

When i was a kid i had no idea how to remove hooks and had no adults around me who knew anything about fishing. So when i couldn’t figure out how to remove a hook that was gut hooked , I panicked due to the fear of the fish dying because its out of water for too long. So i cut the line released it hook-in. Knowing I probably just killed the fish. Im not a vegan, but I fish for sport, so unintentionally killing a fish always upset me. Thats why I want to learn how to do this properly. So thank you for making this video

@krga94c 6 лет назад

That's pretty smart. But it still takes a little finagling through the gills and not damaging them while the hook is being pulled downward. The best device I've ever seen for this sort of thing, and even if it's completely swallowed into the fish's stomach, is a remover call the Out-O-Matic. When I was a kid in the late 60s, early 70s, my parents bought some of these. We did a lot of cat fishing, and they were always swallowing the bait all the way down. This device can go all the way down, dislodge the hook, and prevent the tip from hooking back into anything else, and the fish literally drops off. And it's narrow enough that I also used on everything, including bluegill. I've seen some plastic copy-type imitations of it over the years. Not sure how well those work. But I kept my Out-O-Matics for over 45 years, till the tackle box that I had since I was a kid was stolen off my boat. I was sick. Fortunately I was able to locate a few on eBay, and swipe them up. Yay!

@krga94c 6 лет назад

@swampy 420 No, but I know what you're talking about. The red ones that are plastic that I mentioned look very similar to the Out-O-Matic with the trigger and everything. Like I mentioned, I never tried them. The Out-O-Matic is all chrome plated metal. Never had to worry about stepping on it or anything.

@JayDee-jx4ew 6 лет назад

Well shown. I caught many fish with hooks down that far that people leave in the fish. Some people just cut the line when a few extra moments will save the fish.This is by far the best way to do it. Hopefully this will educate fishermen so they're not scared to do this.

@finmanpoozie4756 12 дней назад

I've done this for days... & have a couple suggestions: 1. Use forceps instead of pliers because forceps are a lot smaller & sometimes there's not a lot of room to move. Forceps are also so tiny that risks of accidental gill damage is minimized. My forceps lock so I typically lock them on the hook before starting to rotate it. 2. Cut the line 1st because sometimes line gets a bit too tight & that prevents the hook from rotating. Snip the line & it's a non-issue then. I've done the same hook rotation on literally hundreds of bass, pike, perch, even bluegill & it's pretty incredible overall Really good video on this topic. Kudos with a hat tip!

Cool idea I'll have to try it cause I get way to many hooked like this on artificial worms.

1:42-1:45 you can see the fish’s eye track the hook as it’s removed. Pretty cool.

I am so afraid to fish because i dont want to accidentally screw something up and kill the fish. But thank you this is helping me get ready for my first solo fish ever.
