Just went thur another salmon "barbless, single sishwash hook" season. Can actually say that I saw no difference in the amount of lost fish...did make it a "heck of alot easier" to release any fish if you had too.

If I had my way...100 % of plugs, spinners, flys, jigs, etc. that are sold in this state would be barbless and "No" treble hooks at all allowed to be used. Hate to have to buy a spinner or plug...then turn right around and re-rig it to make it legal..

Manufacturer have the ability to "fine tune", the spinners and plugs before they get to the consumer!!!!
