Hey that information link is great! Didn't know of those articles.

Lots of search results that don't seem to relate. I lose hope by the 4th page or so. Maybe I'm not using the right terms here.

I can take a hint though, I'll start using caution of posting what might be common questions here.

nm, the answer is in your answer. searching for "game" instead of "fish" worked. thanks!

Mike, for those of us that have been fishing for years, or grew up fishing, your question appears to be so basic, that some may get a tid bent from it; don't let it discourage you (with the enviro wackos, MLPA... we need every person we can get supporting fishing). Yes there is exceptionally valuable information on this site if you take the time to search; I highly recommend it, but also any questions, just ask away.

A game bag is good for smaller fish like most rock fish, sand and kelp bass... The game clip is good for larger fish, like halibut, yellow tail, white sea bass... both if secured tot he yak, keep the fish from swimming away, flopping out of the yak..., but you could always just put the fish in the hull if your latch and hull storage is large enough.

As for how we secure them, most yaks have these nylon eyelets to clip or tie to: http://www.kayakfishingsupplies.com/...Pack-of/Detail

Go to home depot and buy a rod of aluminum stock and make your own game clip, I think I paid under $6 for the piece that I have. Made a loop on both ends, laced one end with some old hoop net rope, laced the other end of the rope to a clip and waaaaalllla!!!

Dude, this rocks, I may have to make one. That sure beats paying $20 or more for one.
