Sorry Buddy, but when fishing a sub surface pattern hookless just won't get it for me. A slight tug on the line (or perhaps no tug at all) and it's over. I'm afraid that I enjoy the fight as much or more than the take. Perhaps hookless will catch on (pun intended) in very limited situations where fishing for rare or exotic fish, but for bass and bream or for stocked trout for that matter, I don't think it will work. Just my 2 cents worth...
