LIP GRIP

[efka]

is anyone using the lip grip, is it worth buying ?
i was thinking buying it because its much smaller than the net, and better to carry around when exploring the water.
any feedback ?

I know a lot of people are using those but...

It ain't much of a use if you can't reach down to the water to scoop up that fish eh ?

I also think that it cause major pain to the fish. Especially bigger fish.

As you've seen from a lot of salmon photos. People like to hold the salmon by the gill and hold it up...

can you imagine the pain/stress put on to that gill? which gotta hold it's own body weight?

Maybe that is why some of my catch can't be revived.

but carp different srory, the head might rip off .
