I have to agree that a no net policy would be beneficial to all fisheries, especially after seeing how many kings are handled in Area 9 and 10 during the summer (into the net, onto the floor, flop flop, out of the net, up for the picture, pitched back into the drink). Last year I purchased an extra long set of needle nose pliers (about 24" long) and these work like a charm for releasing fish in the water, with no more risk (maybe less) than it takes to net a fish from the side of the boat (how many times have you seen somebody lunge at a fish with the net!)
