What is bizarre about bones are how easy they are to catch from a boat. They will hit an umbrella rig on wire and are not finicky. I went out last week (on a boat) and doubled up every pass (with yo-zuri minnows on braid with a mono leader) and we left because I was tired of catching them. (they were only 4-6#) I agree from shore it is a different story but I think the reason is that there are not many of them in close. When a lot of them show up I think the competition factor kicks in and they strike without thinking about it. A few years back you could catch them like bluefish off the beach. It is different now.
It was a loop knot that got cut through, but only on the one side. The one fish stayed on until it ran at me. That is what led me to the barb insight. Sounds like there are many ways to skin a Bone. Thanks for all the insights!
