{Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Handling Bass articles and a question

There are videos on YouTube that offer tips, especially when a fly gets caught further down. One video in particular I saw a guy go in through an open gill with his plyers to unhook the fish, then he pulled it out via the mouth. I am not sure if that is best practice but it seemed a lot less harmful that going through the mouth. 

I have had issues with flies going too far, especially when I have set hooks too slow. These days I've had the most trouble getting big flies out of little fish.

Pinch down your hook barbs. Makes removal easier.
