Single hook upgrade

I think this the year I finally upgrade to single hooks on the Buzz Bombs.

Anyone have a TEN TON press to pinch barbs for me ????

John that hook looks like the one on my Flying Gaff with 1/2 inch nylon rope.


Anyway, if you are having problems with smaller hooks:

Big circle. Files and the Dremel. If you try to pinch them they break off and leave a ragged edge. Fish cop guys here say if a cotton ball will snag on the barb area the hook is barbed and you are in trouble!

BARB LESS I HOPE :eek:

Nah!! The hook I have will never see the saltchuck. Only freshwater, I think I will tie a radical fly for steelhead fishin.... I May need quite a few bunny pelts, a few pheasants and a five #bag of mylar to finish it though.
