I'm not so sure that banning any hook would make that much difference . As others have stated and from what I have seen other hook shapes do it just as often .Kahles are just harder to get out . I fish Octopus hooks because I hook more fish with them . When I gut hook a short Fluke I just cut the leader and release the fish (not that I catch that many Fluke). Nature should rust out the hook in a few days .
