I've had many nice fish knocked off by inexperienced folks...when getting "help" too net a fish...I have always taken the lead in the operation...."put the net in the water...and leave it still...I'll lead the fish to the net....don' be tryin' ta scoop it or its the soup for you"....so simple...but ohhh so hard to not scoop...Val has the technique down pat now....a quiet net and a gentle lift....all a netter should do....of course things can still go wrong...
