Fishing Tip – Proper netting
So many big fish are lost during netting that it is necessary to talk about it here. First, dark netting is best because it doesn’t frighten fish as much. If another person is doing the netting,
make sure to place the net in the water before bringing the fish alongside the boat.
Try to net the fish headfirst if possible, and it is usually best to wait until the fish is well played out before trying to net it. Never make wild motions with the net, always make a slow sweep or leave the net stationary. Usually fish will try to escape and will swim right into the net.
