How to correctly hold Trout

[PBH]

[quote riverdog]Are you going to do this for all his post from now on?[/quote]

No. I enjoy reading -- really I do. I love novels. But I can't sit and read all of Tubedude's posts and attempt to condense them all. Heck, I can't even keep up with just this thread -- let alone all of them!

Some of us (Tubedude, Myself) just like to hear the sound of our own keyboards typing away, and thus our posts get a bit long....

[quote MarineSpear] I find the slimers too difficult to hold underwater and remove the hook. [/quote]

[quote flygoddess]I know what you are saying. Some trout are just way more slippery than others. I have no idea, but maybe PBH or someone else with the background knows.

Get yourself a pair of ragg wool gloves. When grabbing fish (trout, or any other fish) the wool acts something like velcro on the fish. They don't slip out of your hands.

Wool has another great quality -- it will retain heat when wet. So, even when they get wet they can still keep your hands warm.
