I'm with Rocket here. Been fishing salmon in Idaho since 2000 and I can't ever recall any type of "single hook rule". Be it number of hooks per line, or points (i.e. treble hooks).
Heard a couple know-it-alls blathering about it once or twice over the years, but never witnessed any verbiage about it in the pamphlet myself.
And it certainly never was the case with steelhead (single hook rule). Me and about a thousand other dudes been fishing Okie Drifters between a 2-hook rig since dinosaurs roamed the earth. Heck, you could even buy them pre-rigged that way in any tackle shop at one time.
They definitely need to get something in there about the barbs though (and gap). That's a tremendous oversight in my estimation.
