keep them from touching the surface when bringing them in for as long as possible. When they are next to the yak loosen your drag but keep bait clicker on to prevent backlashs from possible runs. Gaff in the stomach and prepare for a close quarters fight. Once you get the gameclip in you will have a good hand hold to control it with so you can club him to death. If you dont have a game clip then good luck putting a stringer through its head without loosing a chunk of finger. And when its all said and done do not let its head anywhere near your lap until you are absolutely sure that its dead. They have sharp teeth and a hard head which can ruin your day if they make contact with certain sensitive areas.
