Great day Justin thanks for bringing us more good content! I'm from Nashville where I train horses but we bought a small farm in Ocala and I bought a 15'6 classic because when I'm not showing horses I'm fishing inshore! Caught my PB snook first time out on the boat a couple weeks ago!

A simple thing like debarbing the treble hooks makes it easier on the fish and just a tiny bit lower hook up ratio. Good stuff ...

Nah. De-barbing trebles on a hard bait makes it way too easy for the lure to get thrown. Replace ‘em with in-line, single hooks about two sizes up. Hook-up ratio will be about the same but you’ll bring a lot more fish to the boat.

Nice work! if you are nervous using treble hooks on top water you can switch them out for single hooks. If the fish thrashes there is less chance to get hooked. Also by switching to single hooks it doesn't tear up the fish like trebles will. Great vid. keep up the great work.

Watching from Port Orange near Ponce while on vacation. Born in Central Florida. Inshore tournament fishing landed me in Central Georgia with a job that wouldn’t fire me when I took 10 weeks off per year to fish. The last time the economy crashed we had to kill the tournaments. Cool channel man, congratulations. You’ve covered some good ground and get it done. Watching is almost as good as being there again, emphasis on almost.

Georgia transplant from FL that loves your vids. Mostly fish SC. Watch those trebs!!! I use a lip gripper and plier combo for treble removal. I had a 4 lb bass on one end of a topwater and my hand up to the hook bend of the second treble on the other end. A snook, tarpon or redfish on the other end would've been worse!

I got my start Snook fishing in the Everglades. It was nothing but top water mirr-o-lures. About 3 hours in, I caught my 20th mangrove and was pissed. So I yanked as hard as I could and luckily it came out… but at a million miles per hour. Next stop was the Marco Island Emergency Room to have 2 sets of treble hooks surgically removed. No one at the hospital gave me a 2nd glance. (Ordinary for them to see someone with a lure stuck to their face and neck…) 2 hours later, a stop by Miami Subs and we were back on the water. So, I certainly understand why you don’t like treble hooks.
