I have a small problem, well, its not so much a problem as puzzle .
How do you remove bream slime from a traditional style landing net ?
We use “T” bars for releasing Conger Eels , 60 lbs plus without ever bringing them into the boat . TBH slime is not a consideration where Conger are concerned, its more a case of making sure you are nowhere near its jaws . Variety is the spice of life as they say .

They are the most “orribe” things going, ever !
Caught them in Africa,but their teeth are something else entirely, they make Congers look like pussycats . Never had any unhooking devices except for a pair of pliers, it was many years ago .
Still got all my fingers , well almost

muraena helena, no sense of humour. I used the R.Walker method once they were sharing my rock. Anguilla anguilla's ?
