Fishing Barbless

This is where it's all going on. One can ask for advice or general information or simply chew the fat about fishing tackle, tips, and locations.

If you are fishing with kids or grand kids,etc. I recommend Barbless. Less traumatic to remove mistakes and in my experience you don't loose that many more fish as long as you keep the pressure on. Gotta admit though, I have lost some pretty decent fish over the years using this method. Guess it's up to each person to balance their decision.
