Switched from trebles to inlines - never going back

Used to swear by trebles until I got one stuck in my thumb—never again. I’ve switched to inline hooks and haven’t noticed a drop in hookups. Plus, they’re easier to unhook fish (and myself). Also, ditch the swivel—it kills topwater action. Braid’s great for dragging through weeds, but pair it with a mono leader and tie direct. Oh, and give the fish a second before setting the hook—I missed bites for years until I learned that. Anyone still using snaps without swivels? #fishing #FishingGear #TopwaterTips
