And for the record, my request was to make Treble Hooks illegal on C&R waters with protected species. Still open to lures and flies, just no trebles.

I'm sure you do, otherwise you wouldn't be requesting it: Do you have any specific examples of C&R waters with protected species that currently suffer high mortality due to treble hooks?
Interestingly enough, Kolob Reservoir is suffering from the opposite. Even with bait allowed for half the year, fish populations are still too high! That place could actually benefit from some additional mortality. Maybe we could get a mandatory "dual treble hook" regulation in place up there?
