I've been having decent luck at Henry's on spoons for a while now. I think I first used one there about 3 years ago. I've actually found them to be pretty effective, but my bigger fish are coming off of other stuff. Don't usually catch anything over about 20 inches on spoons.
I noticed the gilling of fish in the video, but I didn't think that any of the fish they released were going to die. Maybe I need to watch again. I don't think that trout are nearly as delicate in the winter as they are during the warmer months. As long as you don't make them bleed, they do pretty well in the winter, IMHO.
I liked the show. I hope it doesn't bring so much attention to HL that it is detrimental, but with all the recent talk about it being over populated maybe more pressure would actually improve the fishery.
I also thought that several of the fish they were calling hybrids were straight up cuts, but I'd need to watch when I can pay more attention.
