Time to go fishing in a trout stream.

With a lure that has no hooks.   👍

I'll probably never understand the no hook thing. But, good luck cyclops2

Blink twice if you need us, brother.

No barbs or no hooks?

Panther Martin offers barbless hooks on some spinners. Panther Martin, Mepps and Rooster Tail offer a single hook on some of their spinners, also. I sometimes use both for my Bass fishing -- get a different Karma.

 

Good Fishing

@cyclops2Did you mean barbless hooks or no live bait perhaps? 
 

No hooks seems a little extreme. That would leave just a net. Doesn’t sound right. 😥

Curious to know what your looking to accomplish by fishing with hookless baits.

I know blue crabs will hang on to bait until they can be netted at the surface.

You can remove the hooks from a crankbait, like a rapala minnow, and use it as a casting weight above a fly in order to fly-fish with a spinning rod. This makes it legally possible in some places to fish a "flies-only" section of a trout stream without a fly rod.

Thanks for the concern about my mental state.  Been very erratic with a new Prostrate Cancer drug.

See if I can give Glenn so time off.    😀
