So I learned quickly a net is no good for shore fishin' hali's. It also now seems I am scratching them up on the jetty rocks because they flop around a lot. I can't really jump in to photograph and unhook an LC when I don't have waders on and phone in pocket etc.
What kind of small fish gripper should I look for? It's probably better to grip their lip than let them flop around right? Thanks for any input, I have no experience with such tools as I have not needed one yet. Even though most of the hali's I catch are small they can still be hard to handle! I'd prefer not to have to squeeze them all together.
Also, why is the 3rd grip so tough to find in a shop?:Evil: I guess I'mm gonna have to break down and order it. That's the main thing keeping me from being a non stop one man mobile surf army cause I can't bring the backup weapon without having to set it down and come back for it later.
