The point is and what you seem not to be getting a grasp on is that if you go fishing and are using treble hooks ... Would more fish die if you use barbed over barbless at that particular time and the answer is YES. Is barbed or Barbless insignificant.... I would say that depends on the context of the study
and how it's measured.
Maybe we should head up to banff next summer fish some bull trout and
you can use spoons with barbed hooks and without..I know after the first bull rolls over on it's belly you will be convinced.

TJ???
I have caught more than my share of fish and thousands were caught on trebles. The size of the hole in the fishes lip has no bearing on mortality.
The Internet is full of studies at least one was linked to in this thread. Barbless doesn't save fish.
