    I've caught halibut up to 435 lbs here in Alaska. The tiny ones are fiddlers and the one you caught is a chicken. In order to keep then from flopping around we have a piece of 1/4" polypropylene rope through the gills and the other end around the tail and draw the rope until its in a circle. All they can do is quiver now.
