The WORST curse to have while TROUT fishing! (HELP)

What's up guys! In this video I head out to a local creek to trout fish. Despite the bad weather I was able to put together a bite and land a few fish. That barbless hook curse though has a hold of me.. and I need to get free from it! LOL Hope y'all enjoy!

Tried em. Just have to kinda horse them in the second you give any slack they get off...went back to vmc 9650s barbed. Problem solved lol. Lots of garbage in that creek huh🤔

MANNNN it’s been killing me. lol might have to go back to using the barbs myself after another trip or two like this. 😂😂 People like to use waterways as their personal dumpster nowadays. It’s sad.

I know that feeling ALL to well. This spring has been really rough, lost some really big browns on barbless hooks, and also landed some great fish too. I'd just hate to get a barbed streamer embedded in a the bottom part of a big trout's mouth. Dealt with it before and usually doesn't end well! I kind of baby the trout in my area.😂Limited habitat and fishing pressure (along with other things) keep the wild populations relatively small on most creeks (Central NY). Great video, I need to get down to WV, looks like some great fisherys.

@@ryanmistur9962 yeah I’m torn between potentially losing my PB, or damaging the fish more than I have to. 😭 WV has some beautiful waterways! Not the best management here but it is what it is lol

It's always Fishing and not always CATCHING
