Which reminds me: Ensure that your barbs are pinched and the kids
are wearing some kind of eye glasses.

An alternative method would be to fish a very buoyant fly - a deerhair
or elkhair amd retrieve quickly to create a decent wake. The fish will
go mad for it and if you dispense with the actual point, not just the
barb, you won't harm any fish and have some great sport.

I fished like this on a four fish ticket point and had great sport seing
the chasing rainbows. My neighbour angler commented how unlucky I had
been not hooking anything:-)
