Gaff or Net? - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Squidco has short cheap gaffs that work fine. The only time I use a net is when fishing the bay. A lot of times you get those butts that are just short and netting them is the way to go. Nets have a tendancy to get in the way as well. A gaff or two are easily stored out of the way. I take two gaffs when I go out. One is a double hook cuda type gaff and the other is a single hooked squidco special.
