Great subject, with well thought out statements. It seems mostly pointed at flossing, as the pure (*%##@^) snagger is pretty obviouse in the technic they are employing. On the other hand I free drifted below blue creek for the first ime this year, and the terminal gear was pretty much the same as a flooser might use. Slip weight and a 6 ft leader with a double hook set up #4's. we hooked 4 fish and boated 2. the 2 we boated were hooked in the mouth. To be honest with you, they could have been hooked in the outer corner of the mouth. I don' remember. But it seems if I go buy the letter of the law, I would be OK as long as the hooks were forward of the gill plates. Comments?
