Caught one Sunday morning with my pliers. It was swimming by while a bunch of us were shooting the breeze after the fish shut off when a shark goes by on the surface. I waded out and grabbed it by the dorsal fin with my pliers. No bait wasted. Wasn't a keeper though, so you may catch it again. Were a couple of bigger blues in the 8 to 10 lb range though that was a big step up from the little 3-4 lbers we've had all summer.
