Catch Release and Barbless Hooks

 

Catch release and barbless hooks.

This time we talk about barbless hooks and I show you how to de-barb your existing fishing hook.

This helps when you need to release a fish. For example if it’s a small one. Like on today’s vlog episode – which you can watch below.

When you catch a fish that you want to release, it will be way easier to do if your fly hook doesn’t have a barb.  Some places also have fishing regulation that only allows you to use barbless hooks.

However, you don’t need to buy or tie all your flies with barbless hooks. If you have a fly with normal old-school barbed hook, I have a simple trick for you here.

A really easy fix is just to clip in the barb from your existing flies. You can use pliers for this. You’ll see how to de-barb your fly on this video.

In this video you’ll see:

– that you don’t need to buy or tie all your flies with barbless hooks

– easy trick of just clipping in the barb from your existing flies
