Way to go RJ,
I know the feeling you felt that day. I just accomplished that last year and then went on the lose my $25 net admiring the fish. Standing knee deep in the generation pulses is not the time to put an unattached net between your legs while you hold a fish. It was worth it even though that ended up being an expensive trout. That is why you live, learn and buy a magnetic net clip.
Great job RJ!
