Landing

Looking for feedback. What method do you normally use to land a fish? I'm sure the answers will depend on the fishing situation. If you do not have a boga grip, do you try to lip a fish? I know that many of us here are catch and release. Lipping a fish seems to be the safest way for the fish to be landed and released to swim another day. I have heard that grabbing a fish by the gill is hazardous to its health. Does anyone here lip gaff their fish? How many people here own / swear by a boga grip? Any shore guys use a net? I have seen a lot of decent fish lost this year just as they were being landed. Again... I'm sure the responses will vary... just wondering what are your preferred methods. Thanks!

Wherever you go.... there you are!
