Buy whatever kind of fishing hook you are wanting to be barbless, then take a pair of needle-nose pliers, and pinch down where the barb is, flattening it to the hook. Repeat this using the tip of the pliers untill the barb is not visible, or is completely smashed into the side of the hook.
Good Luck!
