Quick question for ya'll. I've been fishing smallmouth with jigs and
once or twice this season I've had a bass gorge the jig. Obviously this
isn't a good thing, but I'm wondering if anyone has any tips on what I
can do to avoid allowing the fish to swallow the whole jig. And also, if
this does happen, does it make sense to try to find some sort of long
nose side cutters to snip to hook in half to remove it?

TIA for any advise.


Get a de-barb, Its made for cutting hooks.
