I was casting a ten weight in the wind last week and took a massive fly to the back of the head. Didn’t hook me but made me think about the joys of barbless.
Wifey and I were out with a guide and he was trying to help her casting. [Fly can throw a 12 wt into the backing so I was enjoying a Red Stripe] He stuck a Black Death in her right earlobe. I thought she was going to feed him to the hammerheads. When I went to remove it, It was through her ear-ring piercing. Cut off the barb and point and left it hanging there for stories at the bar......................
