Thanks so much for reading my post !!
You hook them through the soft tissue in the top and bottom jaw and hang them in a hole in the ice.....you do not put the stringer clip up in the gill plate. Believe me my friends.... when I say RELEASED it means they swam away.... Further to that... IF we have any doubt....they would be table fare and/or resident Eagle feed.
Try it sometime....It works. Allows for a nice picture at the end of a great day and gives a good feeling knowing someone else will have a chance to do the same through the ice or in the not to distant future when we will have open water. BORN FREE......
