No. I think that has been covered pretty well. Thanks to several excellent contributions to this thread.
My only concern is losing a large one the next time an opportunity presents itself. That's what I have been mulling as I linger here and visit with kindred spirits. I want to reduce my risk of failure to as close to 0% as I can get it.
This place also serves as a social and networking environment, and not a bad one at that. I like meeting people and listening to all the diverse ideas.
Please start the next topic

That would be a neatly tethered and surgically placed spear tip only, not a spear. No need for a flailed hook gaff in this case.
The next one will be sufficiently dead, bled, unhooked and on a game clip before I pull him or her onto my lap.
