Sparkey by stinger hooks you are referring to the typical double boondogging setup? I have used this setup for many years for regular driftfishing and hooked a number of smolts and nates...all released in very good condition. Don't see where bait or barbs would have made a difference? Also was introduced to this setup for boondogging just this last year with the same results. Sparkey you make a number of claims but I have to ask the question...do you have actual extensive personal experience with the double hook setup? Especially boondogging? If not then how can you even speak to it's effects?

BTW I'm personnally concerned about the "moron" reference made earlier. If I or anyone else disagrees with someones views should we be catergorized as MORONS?
