Re: great striper jigging out of Montauk, NY
we use a carp sling for muskies. Weigh & tape the fish in the sling, release the fish, weigh the sling w/o the fish, deduct from the total to get approx weight.
Its all stress on the fish. We just try to minimize it. If it swims away, we hope for the best. I like to think I treat my releases better than most--feels good knowing you tried.
Nice trophy striper, Kilsong. That's def a fish of a lifetime. The fluke aint too shabby either! Too many jump in with negativity off the bat. Admire that its a nice fish and move on.
