I hear ya loud and clear. I let my one neighbor fish, with the rule that he has to remove any LMB caught without a tag. I think I'm going to have to add to that rule saying barbless hooks after seeing a LMB swimming around with a one of those plastic worms with 3 hooks on it in it's mouth. Seems the line broke as he was trying to land the fish. FWIW, two days and the worm had worked itself out and was gone. I could id the individual fish, it was feed trained and had a distinctive mark on it.
