Peter,
Where can you get one of those boga grips? I need something but
haven't found anything I like.

Ouch. Sorry to hear about it, Peter.

FWIW, I've always been concerned about my lack of control of the big guys
when landing/removing the hook. My brother just gave me his boga grips,
and I'll give em a try this winter. I think I'll be able to bring the fish
in hotter, I won't ever need to beach them, and I'll have more control over
the fish.

Now, I just have to file off that weight scale so I can keep making up the
weights as I go along.

Ah! There is always some product you can buy that will make life
easier! I think I am reaching for the hook with foreceps only from now
on. Should have done that all along - thier teeth have slashed up my
hands many times. Anyway, I hope you get a brownie this fall that
bottoms out your scale, Scott!
