Boga Grip?

In the market for a gripping product. It would be better to use on samll halibut and would be less stree of fish that I want to release. What do you guys use?

I use the cheapy berkely one. $30 at walmart, and works just as good as it's $300 equivalent. Sure it doesnt have a scale, but they make a model that does. I don't think you need to go all out on a boga grip, especially from a kayak where you stand a higher chance of losing it. Besides, its laws of fishing. Your $300 boga grip will go in the drink first trip. You'r $30 walmart could be dropped in and itd be stuck to the lip of the next fish u catch.

I used to use a boga grip alot, but it also ruins a lot of smaller halibut's lips by piercing it through, no matter how careful you are not to do it. Cabela's makes a bright orange plastic lip gripper that works great! Check 'em out they are cheap!
