"Rubber nets are less abrasive and do less damage to fish slime, scales, fins, and gills than knotted nylon mesh nets. Plus, hooks don't snag as much on rubber nets, which can help reduce time in captivity." - Keep Fish Wet

Fish barbless hooks and use hook removal tools to get the fish back in the water as soon as possible.
As anglers we all have a role to play in the future of our fisheries! Let's make sure that we do our part and keep those fish healthy and happy for future fishing days ahead. Cheers!
