It varies depending on where you’re fishing I think. Using lures on trout with treble hooks and barbs can cause a lot of mortality even if you let the fish go. If your fishing a place to keep fish then yeah it doesn’t really matter much.
That’s why there’s fly fishing only regulations on most streams with naturally reproducing wild and streambred trout.
 
Just about all the freestone rivers and streams look real similar throughout the country. Generally fly rods work better because of the insects along those streams. Weighted lures aren’t very natural and get hung up on rocks constantly.

Minus it’s real deep in some places and super fast and then calm in others you could use a wide variety of tackle. Some places you could even use a Carolina or Texas rigged plastic. It changed so much.

True just gotta read up on what stream you are fishing as with any you can have said pellet pigs washed down stream that will shy away from any type of lure and prefer bait. I’m sure the yuppies during all this covid have been doing more fishing than they have their entire lives and the vast majority would rather throw bait.
 
Delayed harvest is gonna start soon Here so you’ll see more single hooks in use. I really never fish trout until all the opening season dies off because all the streams are basically elbow to elbow. Heck I’ve been fishing for bass the majority of this year bout the second or third time I’ve fished for trout. I haven’t kept a fish all year besides a catfish lol.
