In Manitoba, anglers must use barbless hooks. Fishing barbless offers a new challenge and pits an angler's skill against the fish without the aid of a barbed hook. Admittedly, using barbless hooks takes some adjustment, but once the technique such as keeping the line taunt when reeling in fish has been mastered, most anglers catch the same number of fish. Once in a while, a fish will jump, throw slack, and the hook. . . . . and the fish wins!
