Barbed Hooks or Barbless? The Troutbitten Podcast

From: Troutbitten

In this episode of The Troutbitten Podcast (Season 13, Episode 5), the hosts dive into a topic that's been on their minds for quite some time: barbed hooks versus barbless hooks. Does it really matter which one you use? The discussion is a mix of personal experiences, with each host reflecting on their past fishing adventures, from barbed hooks on bait and lures to the common fly fishing dilemma for trout. While some anglers are passionate about always fishing barbless, others might question the need. Tune in for an insightful conversation that considers both sides of the debate and whether barbs have a place in modern fly fishing.
