In my experience the hooks even gain some effectiveness. As debarbing reduces the cross section of the wire, itīs easier to set the hooks. My success in hooking fish on medium distance casts with the fly nearly doubled after I started to debarb. So I even debarb the hooks in my kit.<br>BTW: I know a lot of people who debarb their hooks. Most of them fish with flies. They also claim that it increases their success.
