[font "Comic Sans MS"][black][size 3]Thanks, Dennis. That's a very informative webpage and well worth the read. I know I'll consider other means in handling muskies. I still think that the cradle net is better than a conventional net for handling those long, snakey critters. Two or three big trebles on a lure, hooking into the twines of the net, can make a mess of a conventional net and virtually lock a fish in it like a straight jacket.[/size][/black][/font]
