sorry had to reupload: just wanted to note that some of u guys think its wrong to hit the fish with the bat but the reason why we do that is because these fish weigh a lot and when they start going crazy on the deck they can really hurt someone or even cause someone to go overboard, also these people are keeping there fish to eat so hitting it is a quick kill so the fish doesnt feel anything just wanted to show u guys what ive been doing up here. i work for my uncle as a deckhand on one of his boats. we take people out on charters to catch halibut, lingcod, salmon, rockfish, ect. this is pretty much what i do on a day to day basis. i work 15 hours a day so i dont really have time to the computer much but i'll try and reply to messages when i can. -bobby btw, the fish thats hanging next to me thats upside down weighed in at 122 pounds lol
