Yes, I'm mainly talking about trout but I'd like to do it while pike fishing too. With pike I tend to just take the hook off and let them swim away instead of tail grabbing them until they recover but I'd like to start tail grabbing them too. Pike do seem more durable.
Right now with the little trout, I grab their body while their still in the water, slip out the fly and let them swim away. I'll try the upside down technique.
