I also wanted to add something. I have seen a technique for using trout beads that put the bead 4-6 inches above the hook. This is specifically done to prevent the fish from swallowing the bead and getting a hook deep in it's gullet. It is similar to using a corky and letting the hook hang down from the corky instead of pegging it right up tight.
Either way, my idea of catching requires the fish to hit whatever I am fishing with. If I can't get them to do that I don't deserve to take them home to eat them.
I love taking my kids fishing, now if I could just manage to fish at the same time.
