Ok, so I know you have to use barb less for springers, is it single hook?  I only saw where they said single hook for sturgeon.  Is it just me or do these ever changing regs and seasons just increase confusion?  any help is appreciated.  I was going to head towards Clarkston on the Snake and see what I can find.  Snake from granite to Clarkston open for springers until further notice with Clarkston area open all weekend now....
When in doubt, throw a line out!

You can use at least two, if not three. I think I read that some had switched to a 3 hook mooching Rig set up, but for sure 2 hooks are okay.

This is how I understand it.

Barbless hooks only, and a hook may be single-point, double, or treble, but not more than one line with up to three hooks.  No hook larger than 5/8 inch (point of hook to shank).


If fishing in Selective Gear Rules: Only unscented artificial flies or lures with one single-point, barbless hook are allowed. Up to a total of three artificial flies or lures, each containing one single-point, barbless hook may be used.
