ok I cant take it anymore! Define flossing.......... My definition is a fish that is lined through the mouth placeing the hook in the corner of the mouth on the far side of the river from the outside in. Right ? So basicly a fish caught in the mouth. Fish caught in the mouth are legal to retain, Right? So where is the F-ING problem, really? I am sure I will get flamed, so what, I am dieing to know. On another note I have incedently foul hooked fish with almost every method! Freak things happen, like a coho slapping a wiggle wart and getting hooked in the tail , from a boat mind you. Doeas that make me a snagger? I have seen many fish eat eggs with there azz holes, but bait isn;'t considered snagging. This is getting so old. Buzz bombs are frowned upon yet I have seen tons caught in the salt on em. WTF
Later...........
No flame from me, but this is a sportfishing website. Isn't the "sport" part about trying to get a response from the fish? I don't care if you floss fish, it is legal in my book, but don't call yourself a sportsman, if you have to justify your catching technique.
The "grab" is where it is at, everything else is totally secondary. I have heard snaggers say "They just like the fight". But that is bullsh!t.
Its the chomp, and the few seconds after that has the most exciting moment in all of sportfishing. If you are going to deprive yourself of that, just buy fish at Safeway.
