It's a lot more rewarding to tie up your own flies, jigs and to paint up your own beads and then catch a trout. Personally, I think roe is way over rated as a trout bait.

When I first started out backlashes were common for a while.... One big one that you can't get out and your going home with only 50-75 yrds. You'll never need 200-300 yrds, but its always nice to have the extra just incase. 200 atleast anyway. IMO

check the regs I believe it is illegal tohave in your possession roe without the fish
Bring on the cold that will solve some of the problem.
I'm sure I'm gonna get dumped on for this but, I've yet to see the day running beads out fishes spawn. I fish an unhealthy amount, and steelhead are my ultra favorite, I run everything in the arsenal on any given day and although there have been days where spawn was waaaay off the menu, beads were nowhere near the magic ticket. I've seen many days where flies, flatties or pinkies, were blowing everything out of the water but beads, nope. Don't get me wrong, they work, and I've done decently on them on occasion, but the hands down replacement for the real deal? I think not.
That said some people take far to many females then they possibly need, and based on the amount of chumming I've seen in the last few years, I figure that's why. Chumming ticks me off just for that reason alone, plus I see people tying bags that are almost always to big for any given water condition. I can easily make 2 fish last an entire year. Freeze in small batches, tie smaller bags.
