Shopping for barbless hooks and came across these. Anybody know how to attach this to a line so it won't come off when you catch a fish? As if I would have to worry about that.

Why would they not put a hole in the end of those hooks? Kinda dumb not to. Just pinch the barbs on any hooks you got.

Not the size I'm looking for. I'm fishing for trout, not sharks.

That's why I posted this in the first place. I know I can pinch the barbs or file them off, but why should I have to if someone can point me in the direction of what I want to buy? I'm a lazy sob. They should be out there somewhere. I've bought em before.

No, but thank you. Several years ago I bought 100 #8 barbless circle hooks from cabela's. I should have bought 1000. I'd like to buy some more, and they no longer carry them. So that's what I'm looking for. Just about impossible to find small circle hooks like that, much less barbless ones. Kinda like shopping at Costco - soon as you find something you like, they no longer carry it. Like my favorite bbq sauce for ribs and my favorite wine.

and Costco's patent response, "Oh, that product is seasonal!"
