 :nono:
the hook will typically be on the outside of the mouth. out of all the salmon/steelhead ive hooked on presentations like jig, bait, ect. none that come to mind were hooked on the outside of the mouth. i have caught fish on corkies corkies/yarn and flies that were hooked outside of the mouth. given the techniques that make fish more or less have to bite all being hooked inside the mouth i can only assume fish hooked outside the mouth are flossed except the oddball here or there.

I've caught a far number of steelhead hooked outside-in when fishing a pink worm.  I think they bite the middle of it and get hooked on the outside in the process.
:nono: we do not continue without Bh45 getting in his  :twocents: all the rules they keep coming with just makes me want to quit ...pretty sad a guy can not go and enjoy catching fish and taking a couple home to eat ...Trying accuse fishermen of jigging is total ------. Oups can not even use that word now  :DOH: sometimes a fish will hit the bait and you jerk and you end up jerking it away from him and then you end up foul hooking him ....I have a problem with it all and all the rules they continue to come up with just over a flipping fish ...if you are using a treble hook with a sinker below it then I will call you a jigger ...but with a single hook I can not agree with them writing anyone a ticket unless they actually witnessed it ...there are others on the river who could of easily fouled hook a fish you caught and no way of proving anything unless the see it for themselves !

Now for another story out of my book  :chuckle: :chuckle: My son is fishing yesterday and the only thing you will catch right now is sockeye ..maybe if your super lucky you will hook into a summer run steelhead ...but not likely ...So he catches a couple comer's yesterday ...all he is playing by the book now since he got a $250 fine a 8 hrs community service over his last issue  :dunno: :chuckle: So he catches a sockeye and is playing it out ...once he gets it to sure he reaches down with a pair of pliers  and cuts it loose ...He then turns around an  :yike: :dunno: a warden is standing behind him the whole time and he never knew he was there  :o :bdid:  He (the warden ) says to Teddy ...Very good job on that release ....I told you we can not hide from them  :chuckle: :chuckle: :chuckle:

I ALSO LOVE HOW YOU GUYS SPLIT when I show up to the party  :dunno: :chuckle: :chuckle: :chuckle: :hello:

I foul hook (snag) at least half of the dogfish that I catch but I do release all of them.  That doesn’t make me a flosser does it?

That's too bad Teddy has to follow the rules now that he has been caught.

Are you coming to the Hunt-Wa BBQ?  Smossy wants to try all the different game.  Bring one of those dogfish to BBQ for him to chow down on...

Dogfish is what they use in england in replacement for cod. :dunno:
Dogfish I wouldnt touch, Ive caught enough of them to know how rancid the meat smells, Smells like amonia. :puke:
The shark fishermen always use them for bait down at the piers, I usually just hand them over to those guys.

-   That’s because they piss through their skin.  I hear that if you soak them in vinegar for a couple of days they taste OK.
