So fall means many anglers are targeting the species.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fishermen seeking spotted seatrout use hook-and-line gear with a variety of natural and artificial baits.&nbsp;Fishing practices and gears that minimize hook injury, handling, and air exposure can considerably improve the chances for the survival of released fish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Research Need<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Releasing fish can help conserve their populations, but the process of capturing and handling fish also can result in injuries or death. These \u201cdiscard effects\u201d present a major conservation issue in recreational fisheries. Even if the percentage of injuries and mortalities are relatively small, fisheries where large numbers of fish are released can have cumulative discard effects that impact the population.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fishing practices and gears that minimize hook injury, handling, and air exposure can considerably improve the chances for survival of released fish. In particular, efficient dehooking substantially reduces the physiological stress in fish that typically occurs during the landing and release process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Earlier field trials with bonefish on Palmyra Atoll found fish would \u201cspit out\u201d bite-shortened hooks once they were reeled in toward the angler and the angler gave slack in the fishing line. The idea appeared promising and prompted the researchers at the UF\/IFAS Nature Coast Biological Station to begin more rigorous testing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"UF IFAS NCBS -  Self-releasing hook modification instructions\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/VC23oNikyc8?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What Did We Study?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>To our knowledge, these are the first assessments of hooks designed to self-release from fish and fully eliminate fish handling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On 150 spotted seatrout, we tested whether standard, barbless, or bite-shortened hooks (Figure 1) would allow anglers to reel in the popular coastal sport fish and then allow the fish to self-release from the hook while still in the water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/ncseagrant.ncsu.edu\/hooklinescience\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2021\/06\/HLS-hooks-holden.png\" data-fullsize=\"1414x606\" data-zoom=\"true\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1414\" height=\"606\" src=\"http:\/\/ncseagrant.ncsu.edu\/hooklinescience\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2021\/06\/HLS-hooks-holden.png\" alt=\"Figure 1.

In comparison, the self-release success rates were 47% using barbless hooks and 20% using standard, unmodified hooks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We also found that smaller fish were able to be self-released without handling at higher rates. Length-regulated fisheries often protect smaller fish, and reducing mortality in these fish especially can help conserve resources.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Self-releasing fish from bite-shortened hook\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/WPZwM8x9iVQ?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>So What?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A proven and effective self-releasing hook could have broad conservation and management applications in recreational fisheries as a means to minimizing or eliminating injuries and mortalities in catch-and-release fishing. A foreseeable use of self-releasing hooks could be to allow restricted fishing in sensitive fishing areas, such as no-take aquatic protected areas or areas experiencing unsustainable fishing pressure.
