"Oregan Rules" say the fish is hooked inside the jaw or it's considered a 'snagged fish' and must be released. Intent has zero to do with it, or how the fish got 'hooked' out side the mouth. Release fish or your up for a trip before the Judge and at least a $175 fine.

The Oregon State Police do the majority of our Game Warden work. They'd prefer not to arrest you ... but it's your call.
