I'm always scared of getting the line or lure a tangled with the fish on
release and catching my hand with a painful of wrong kind of hookset. You
really have to take your time perhaps forgo a picture and check and double
check .
A couple of the Cdn fishing hosts on TV display real expertise in handling
large fish. Positioning a fish and opening the mouth to remove a deepset hook
is another skill. Even if you are just assisting another angler.
