Nice video. ..i haven't hooked an hb yet.

Good enough for the yellows I've caught. I don't use a gaff and for the yellows I just hand pull them in. The clip I made makes it easier to maneuver the fish in and out the water once closed.

I would like to experiment with a fish gripper for hbs. .. I've got pretty strong arms so I would think the gripper would end up breaking or the hbs jaw would go. I'd try to keep his head pinned to the yack with his tail down.

Haven't seen any videos with someone trying it...only one way to find out for those things. Of course I'd keep it head out of the water only until the jujitsu grip taps him out via exhaustion then I'd go for the ko.

I've seen people gaff them and lose their gaff still stuck in the fish...but I've also seen people have a hard time gaffing yellowtail when they are pretty easy to pull up by hand the first try.

thx for the video
