Central New York Posts: 142 | I caught this brown trout today during a caddis hatch, and took a look inside of its mouth to see if I could see any of the bugs it was taking. When I looked inside its mouth, I saw these hook-like things on its tongue. This was a wild fish - I dont know if that has anything to do with it. Maybe its something I just haven't noticed before? Does anyone else see any of these on a trouts tongue? | |

Central New York Posts: 142 | No pictures this time - but, I caught some rainbows tonight and they ALL had these barbs on their tongue. I guess its just normal and I just didn't see them before. | |

Arlington, VA/ Mercersburg, PA Posts: 653 | caught the first of the season (15 inch stocked brown) on Wednesday and took the time to really look in the mouth: yep, 4 little teeth on the tongue. no wonder getting the hook out can be a scratchy business! dropped the first trout i ever caught on my own right on the bank because i was so startled to feel the teeth. they don't tell you about them in beginner classes and books. | |
