Cudz Posted January 24, 2013 Report Share Posted January 24, 2013 (edited) Yep. That is what it says on this box of weighted 5/0 treble hooks. I saw them when I was in florida and had to get a pic. Different laws in different places Edited January 25, 2013 by Cudz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

porkpie Posted January 24, 2013 Report Share Posted January 24, 2013 (edited) While I am a much accomplished liner when I really need Chinook roe, I would love to have one of those strapped onto an 8 foot Muskie rod wih 80lb braid and a small tuft of fat yarn draped over the hook and proceed to walk up and down past the SIMMs mafia in september and asking each and every one of them how's the fishing..... Good times!! Edited January 24, 2013 by porkpie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rod Caster Posted January 25, 2013 Report Share Posted January 25, 2013 I tried them in a brookie stream but caught too many sticks and tag alders. What a mess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aplumma Posted January 25, 2013 Report Share Posted January 25, 2013 They are one of the best ways to get bait for Saltwater fishing. You cast into a school of mullets or shad and bingo you got free bait. Art Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted January 25, 2013 Report Share Posted January 25, 2013 When I visited Nova Scotia during the smelt run, a weighted treble was commonplace. A few minutes in a little ditch leading to the ocean tossing the silver spider and we had a decent meal for the evening. Something I wouldn't do here, but was interesting to experience in a different province. Different rules for different places! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kemper Posted January 25, 2013 Report Share Posted January 25, 2013 A staple on the Credit! A good reason to NEVER grab a boot by the tail until you've had a good look at it first... I have heard something about legal snaggin' for paddlefish in some areas? I seem to remember a big treble being the weapon of choice... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
solopaddler Posted January 26, 2013 Report Share Posted January 26, 2013 Many many years ago I was fishing below the coffer at Tippy dam on the Manistee when the siren started wailing signaling a water release. I was standing in deep water a fairly long and sketchy wade from the shore and scrambled to reach safety. Still waist deep and with the water rising my foot became stuck on the streambed, I couldn't move. I was in a panic pulling as hard as I could with no success. I almost stripped off my waders in order to free myself then adrenalin kicked in, I pulled with a fury and broke free. When I made it back to shore there was a humongous michigan cricket stuck to my foot LOL! The streambed was littered with them. Thankfully the practice is outlawed now.
