Actually - that pic is a SNOOK - on the list for fish I want to catch

SF - it's a tough call but how high is it from where you fish to the water? I know some really experienced people use a long handled gaff and try to gently gaff the fish in the mouth (if there such a thing as genntly gaffing) so it can be released if necessary....

Berkely makes a "long handled" Lip grip but it's still only 28 inches long...

Tough call and I know I don't need to tell you how important it is to know how you will retrieve a fish. I highly recommend that you invest in a pair of Sospenders or similar http://www.sospenders.com/product/8030381.html just in case...
