"I remember he also said that you never let the fish touch the deck of the boat when you bring them in as they might get "Rug-Burn""

when a bass may slide on the side of a boat deck, especially the rough footing areas, it removes the slime which protects the fish from infection or desiese, overhandling does this too.
Fish that overwinter in the chesapeake caught striped bass skin infection easier when they had no protection. Also, does anyone know if the disiese is still a problem or not?
