I have fished the local lake's for over 30 yrs. . but I'm new to mack fishing we have been up to flaming gorge several times in the last few yrs. fishing for mack's I've only been able to get in to pups nothing over 8lbs. I do know better then to stick my fingers into the gills. but my question is when I do get into a bigger fish one day that you drag from the deep what is the best practice in releasing it properly, so far is the air sack, netting it , keeping it out of the water for a picture ect. maybe there is others reading this post that will learn from it also.
I to have a lot of respect for a fish that has lived that long of a life. and would also like to have my son and grandson be able to catch a nice Laker one day.
