Please forgive my ignorance. I have fished for some years and have always used barbed hooks. Now I am old I question the sense in using them for two reasons.
One the difficulty of hook removal and two, my youngest grand kids are into fishing and if they get a hook stuck in somewhere it would be so much easier to remove a barbless hook. The guys on TV dont have issues with hook removal. Are they using barb less hooks.
