any advice on the gill plate grab. last one like i said it was goin home any way.. so i just shoved my hand in there with out a care. what sort of approach should i be goin for? i'm thinkin i should be aiming for the bottom of the plate. correct?

i'll just stick to smaller fish (on purpose ) alot easier to lip
