Keeping Fish on the Line?

[Hank49]

I like this idea. Going to experiment with this next time we dive. I can see no reason why after putting the fish on the shaft you couldn't then tuck the fish and shaft into a bag minimzing sharks taking the fish. Just close the line around the mouth of the bag. We have been hassled by sharks a lot lately.

The fish may attract sharks, but Doc, my buddy who does this method, says it also attracts other fish. And on New Years Day this year, he got a 30 lb amber jack that was doing just that. Coming in and checking out his stringer....again and again. Double edged sword.
