I was trying to catch trout today so I had a small sized treble hook with some power bait and a catfish took it but it straight up swallowed it. It was deep enough I couldn't even see it and the line was 4lb and ended up breaking pretty quickly when I was trying to remove it
What are my best options in this situation?

Just cut the line as close to the hook as possible. Why are you using treble hooks for trout? Put your powerbait on a single hook, for all the fish's sake.
