    The line may still pass through the eye of the hook, but primarily fastens to the shaft. Hooks tied with a snell knot provide an even, straight-line pull to the fish.

Frequently, fish caught on barbless hooks can be released without being removed from the water, and the hook(s) effortlessly slipped out with a single flick of the pliers or leader.

[2] Timing of setting the hook is important especially when fly fishing as some game fish such as trout are vigilant enough to ...
