Posted on April 19th, 2008Hi Adrain…I\’m good thank you. I\’m always worried when I\’m handling big fish which makes me extra careful. The new www.luckystrikebaitworks.com , Live Release Basket net is a good device to use to land large pike and walleye. Once you have landed them, it\’s a good idea to wear a Normark Fillet Glove to protect your hands while you are holding them (that\’s what I used for handling the large tarpon). Having the right tools is also very important. This includes long-nose pliers, mouth spreaders and wire-cutters (if you need to cut some hooks). And the most important thing when handling big fish….always be ready for them to head-shake and make sure you are clear of their teeth, spines or lures/hooks hanging from their mouths….God bless you, Italo
