I just picked up a fly rod about a year ago and started tying shortly there after. Everytime I tie a fly (at least thats what I call um)I mash the barb down with my plyers. The question I have is if that wold be considered barbless as far as the game warden goes. I know that some parts of certain rivers are designated for barbless hooks only and I do not want to end up with a nice little fine.Thanx for any feed back.
