I know with anything related to kayaking, there are always helpful tricks you learn on your first few trips out. I'm hoping to reduce the learning curve and avoid some mistakes.
Any tips of tricks appreciated.
I get the whole safety thing, but what's the best approach? A good headlamp, rig up some deck lighting? Any tricks for pulling nets without a Davit? A simple way to hold the nets on deck?
So far I can think of, bring Kevlar gloves, waders, my diving light, headlamp.

Don't pull em on board too fast, make sure to check the nets as you are heaving and they get close to top water or else you may end up with an Eel slithering around your crotch
