Re: It's come to my attention
Why is he wearing gloves? HE'S 7!!! He was targeting sunfish and didn't like the idea of trying to take the fish off the hook by himself with the spike. As a matter of fact I would say he's pretty damn smart to think of the idea by himself instead of NOT want to try and making me stand there and unhooking a thousand sunnys.
The stuff all over the bass is this awful horrible stuff that you find on the ground call GRASS!!!! It grows wild and if you don't control it can become a very big problem. It is known to cause stains on jeans so be very careful!
The kid was using a snoopy pole and brought that bass in by himself. Why is there grass on it? Because I immediately took it off the hook, showed him the proper way to hold it, snapped a picture and threw it back....
I didn't wash it off...make sure the fish was okay...hold him by his lip for 3 minutes in the water...and stress him out more...
so in fact - what I did was CORRECT.
Total time out of the water was less than a minute.
FYI he has graduated from the gloves to ease your concerns...
