    Would like to see how that gaff would do on a 80lbs tuna. It looks cool for smaller fish.

    Looks like that could scratch up the deck pretty good with those prongs but maybe I'm wrong.

    Interesting concept, but as stated, I don't want to be holding onto the tail end of a green 70+ yellowfin or bigeye.

    I could see a beefed up, "flyer" version of that working on larger marlin, bluefin, sharks as long as that thing locks once it clamps down. Be a good way to prevent gaff holes, loss of weight, etc.

    That was my 1st thought. Anyone who has ever gaffed a decent sized tuna south of the rear dorsal has had a gaff snatched out of their hands.

    why

    it seems okay for kings or smaller fish but i was taught that when you control the steering wheel(head)you control the direction...i don't want to be attached to any decent fish by the tail....if i'm gonna get beat by a gaff handle i have a few other ideas
