Plastic hand Gaff......
I saw this gaff in the regs and wonder if anyone is using them and your results....small, no barb, no sharp edges, ease of release?
Thanks.

No way I would use it on fish I was going to release myself. A net, cradle, lip gripes, and hands are all way better options. Even for catch & keep it looks awkward
This is just my opinion from looking at the design

When I read the title I had no idea what to expect, but thought it was quite funny. Less grip to hurt the fish maybe?
