I use one on bigger fish when I'm solo. Hell of a lot easier to maneuver. Only drawback is them damn things are dangerous. Stuck myself this morning just below the calf and had a pretty good bleeder. Thank goodness I have a med kit on board or I might have had to rush in.

People, if ya get stuck, take care of it properly.!!!!!
