landing fish from a jetty
I did quite a bit of fishing this week from the East Wall at the Camp Cronin fishing area. I liked fishing from this jetty - it was a dry, easy, flat surface to walk on, even at night. The problem was landing fish. Since the jetty is about 10 feet above the water, and my rod wasn't nearly sturdy enough to just hoist the fish on to the rocks, I had to climb down to the water to get the fish. This was not a fun thing to do, as the rocks were very slippery.
How do you guys land big fish from a jetty? Are there options other than getting a very short, stiff rod to just hoist the fish up on the rocks? I'd appreciate any suggestions.
