I'll bet there are many more lures/and bait type tackle of all types get lodged in the mouths and gullets of stripedbass that cause as much if not more harm. I only used this method when I am with my buddy on his boat. Never used it recreationally. I don't ever see it being banned. It is very effective. It is a dead certainty that the fish will ingest pieces of metal and that is something we all have to be concerned with. If its banned so be it.
I am curious how the boat/captain was keeping all the fish?
