Calm down them trout's!

I don't know how many times I got one of them trout in the boat with a huge top water plug hangin out of his mouth. Them dang thangs will turn kamikazi on you quick. Try to reach in there and grab that fish, and he is sure to give you the "Mega Flop" and try to lodge as many of those free hooks into your hand as possible.
Well, just the other day, a thought occured to me. Why not whistle the little fighter a lullaby. I kinda laughed it off, but then thought, what the hey, I'll give her a shot(or a toot in this case) and believe it or not IT WORKED! The fish got plum still and I was able to get that hook out as safe as ever. I tried it several more times with the same results. So I share this knowledge in the name of research and ask that everyone that is so inclined as to try it, will post back with there results.
Thanks, Fish Masterson
