I caught a cormorant with a sabaki rig the firrt time I used it. I caught two large sardines and the cormorant ate one of them. Three Hooks got in the bird. Another kayaker said grab the bird by the neck, which I then did and proceeded to remove all the hooks.

Good job in removing the hooks ctfphoto. I never leave a hook in a birds mouth... bad carma. The best way to calm down a bird while trying to remove the hook is to blindfold him. Just throw a t-shirt on his face and then quickly grab his beek. And remove the hook carefully.
