YT are easy to CnR. They are tough and usually tired enough at landing that they don't thrash too much. They also don't bloat and float. Remove hook and sort of torpedo them headfirst and down. WSB are a rather fragile fish and will usually be kinda floaty and require a time to revive. Don't take them from the water , remove the hook, turn right side up, and push them back and forth until they swim off. Halis a the worst in my opinion. They aren't tired and you always have to expect that they are going to freak out. I don't like nets because they tend to tear up the fins and if the hook is in the fish and gets tangled in the net the fish can be out of the water longer than you want. I try to get the hook out with the fish in the water and the just let them sink away. Mike
