MikeTlive, we caugth 2 nice fish last year in the 20 lb class on the boat that were both passing the mono out the anal fin and no sign of a hook so it must have rusted out. The fish were both really healthy and released again. without the mono. If you gut hook a fish don't take forever to make up your mind, best thing to do is cut the line as close to the mouth as possible so that the fish can continue to feed and get it back in the water.
If a person gut hooks 40 schoolies in a night he better start thinking about working on his fishing skills or start throwing artificial lures instead, then he won't guthook so many fish!!!!!!!
At least if you let them go they have a chance and if not something else out there has a meal!!!
