    returning fish from a great height i.e. pier

    in Sea Fishing

    Posted

    when ever i throw the smaller fish back on the pier they always appear to float on the surface and get taken by the gulls so i went on another forum and found a very good solution that i didnt even think about.

     

    anyway i thought i'd share it with you because maybe like me, you dont like killing fish for no reason.

     

    so if you catch a fish you want to release you:

     

    place the grip wire from your lead weight carefully behind one of the gills and then you can lower the fish slowly into the water.

     

    i will be using this method when i next go so hopefully it works, dont see why it wouldnt

    i get the impression these are a killer bait for big bass so i need to get some.

     

    how do i get hold of some?

     

    there is a place i can dig them but they are quite small and i can only get 1 or 2 because they are so fast.

     

    how can i improve my chance of digging a good quantity?

     

    is there anywhere online that i can buy them?

     

    thanks in advance

    if i were to catch a big fish off a pier........

    i've never really thought about it but if i was to land a big bass on a live bait on a pier how would i get it up the wall if i didnt have a drop net??

     

    what is the maximum weighted fish i can pull up a wall without the risk of it breaking? if i lost a big fish (especially a bass) i'd feel like jumping off the pier. i'd hate it.

     

    has this ever happened to anyone on here?

    Limit to pier rods?

    i like catching loads on the beachs because when you get 3 or 4 on a beach rod its fun for me. i always put them back unless i am going to use them for bait and i occasionally take the big ones home for the pot.

     

    i never bag all of the mackerel i catch unless i am actually going to use them all within a week or two.
