When fishing for barbel I've tried hooks in sizes ranging from 8 to 14, I've used only a few different kinds, those being Kamasan animal, animal barbed and the specimen micro barbs, as well as middy match meat, corn and maggot hooks. The match hooks were ****, didn't really rate them as my local tackle shop didn't have anything bigger than 14, plus they kept bending outwards. The same happened with the Kamasan specimen micro barbed. The animal barbed hooks were okay too but they never seemed to stay tied on, same with the barbless and I prefer to fish barbed as they give a much better.hookhold. I've got a pack of Kamasan Barbel Maxx hooks that I'm using tomorrow, I'm hoping they'll be good considering they're labelled as barbel hooks... What does everyone else use? What would you say is the best?
