All the fish I have ever caught on beads were hooked in the corner of the mouth, and my leaders are always about 18" long. The fish strikes the bead, the bead slides through the mouth and the hook becomes embedded in the jaw. This is not snagging. Steelhead instinctively strike at eggs, supposedly trying to get rid of competition... promote their own genes. In the case of the included photo, the chance of the line just floating on into this fishes open mouth would have been pretty close to impossible.
