shouldn't even be a debate. Take it from someone who's been fishing the Kenai for 25 years, and family for many more before I was even born. Back in the old days it was treble hooks with melted lead. It was blatant snagging and that's just the way it was. Now this "flossing" thing comes along and has at least turned it into a "sport". There's a certain technique and it's every bit a responsible way to fish, and done right is no different than any other means. At least there aren't as many issues with fish mortality as hooks don't get buried deep, and rarely does a fish come to the bank with bleeding gills. Can this really be an argument?
