I'm not trying to berate you or anything remotely resembling, so please don't take this question wrong or out of context.
After reading many other reports like this, catching a shark as a by catch or targeted always seems to be a possibility...doesn't anyone own/have/use a Dehooking appliance? In preparing for my offshore Kayak fishing I bought an 34" ARC Dehooker just in case (just the right length to keep them toothy critters at a safe distance ). I have a number of types for Fly Fishing Trout & jigging Bass and have had good success with them (not to mention all the hooks I've saved). They are a small enough profile that they don't take up any space and if you're out trying for a trifecta during the restricted fish season you can release a fish at length safely releasing fish without having to bring it aboard or handling and then continue to fish for and 'Butts if your so inclined.
The only reason I ask now is that so many members here practice C&R () and having read so many reports over the years then with the new year upon us with the , and "Butt season just around the corner (or just continuing for those who still continually a couple times a week ) I though this would be a good time to ask.
