I mentioned this once before, and was almost bulged for it.
Nice to see I am not alone with this issue. As I said in my thread. It is in there slip coat. Or slime coating. What ever you want to call it. I get it on the backside of my fingers, when I put my hand inside the gill plate. The back of my fingers get scraped by the gills. Something like small cat scratches. Then my fingers swell up. The large dorsal fin will do a number on you also if you are allergic to this situation!!! Evidently it has no affect on some people. I thought every body was going through this. I am still learning! Great stuff. The pain is still worth catching thes fish!
