Why are there no barbs on the hooks of Monopterus albus?

One-piece eel hooks are usually designed without barbs for the following reasons:

1. Protect Monopterus albus: The barb-free design of the integrated Monopterus albus hook can reduce the damage to Monopterus albus. The traditional hook may leave a deep wound in the mouth or throat of the fish, but the design without barb can reduce this risk and protect the safety and health of Monopterus albus.

2, easy to decouple: no barb design, more convenient to decouple. Monopterus albus has a soft body and is sometimes entangled in hooks. If there are barbs on the hook, it may be more difficult and unsafe to remove the hook. The barb-free design can reduce the hook between Monopterus albus and the hook, and make the hook unhook faster and safer.

3. Fishing effect: The barb-free design of the integrated eel hook can also improve the fishing effect. Because there are no barbs, Monopterus albus is more likely to be hooked when attracted by bait, which reduces the resistance and discomfort when fishing. This can increase the chances of successful fishing.
