How Do You Do Yours?

Fish on right, Gaff on right for me.

I plan on bringing the fish up on my left so I can use my left to gaff it because I am left handed. I lean to the right though, so that should keep me in balance. That being said, I am still waiting for a gaff-worthy fish to sacrifice himself to my hook.

so far I haven't had to gaff any of the mackerel that come to my boat, I carry the gaff just because it looks so cool sticking up next to my bait tank. I don't even know what side it's on most of the time.

It's nice to have something really pointy in the boat for when you roll during landings, too, I find...

speaking of rolling. If everything is attached to a leash does it cause problems getting tangled with rods and the likes when you flip your yak?

Wouldn't know. I put the small and pokey stuff inside the hull.

Better tangled than lost, I guess.

I close my eyes and wing it. Right side, left side, inside or outside. That monkey and footballs thing. Wide open!
