Fish clips?
I've gone brain dead for the moment. Fishing partner this past weekend used
a clip setup to hook up his fish and give himself a handle to remove them
from the livewell. Somebody help me remember what they're called or maybe
the web site. Thanks.

| I'm tired right now so I forgot to include that what I'm looking for is not
the one in Basspro catalog. He had plastic "clothes pin" type clips that
gripped the fish's lip and not the safety pin style in the BPS catalog.

| At $35.00+ they seem a tad pricey to me.

| It looks like Cabela's has them for $24.99, if that helps.

| I have a similar set of clips with sealed colored surgical tubing instead of
ropes. They work ok, but they come off. I have found if I very carefulyl
take the time to put the clip around the jaw bone (doesn't realyl reach for
larger fish) they stay on better, but I still have one come off once in a
while. I really liked the idea, but if they come off it can waste valuable
fishing time when trying to cull a small fish for a larger one.

| What I did instead to minimize damage with my regular float balls was
sharpen the point on a grinder to a needle tip. They go in easier and leave
almost no extra damage later from tearing. Just a very tiny puncture hole
in the soft tissue behind the jaw bone.
