Long net and release line.
ok Im not to proud to ask a goofy question....I do some vert trolling/spider riging, but its never in shallow water....use 12ft rods....now if im vert trolling/spider rigging in shallow water, whats the best way to land the fish once you hook it??? what I mean is, say I got 3ft of line down from the tip of the rod to the jig, if I lift the fish up like I normally do and try and swing em in the boat, that suckers roughly 9ft in the air, not to mention maybe snapping off the rod tip......so how the heck do you land em?? thanks for any info, have a great one all, God bless.

Long net and release line.
I aint here to tell you anything. You want to know what Im doing....pm me and meet me on the lake.
Ladder maybe? lol. I'd say carefully slip some line and land in a quality net. A bit of help from your partner couldn't hurt.
Creativity is just intelligence fooling around
With a loose drag you can pull line off the reel. If it's a slab....GET DA' NET!!!
Health nuts are going to feel stupid someday, lying in hospitals dying of nothing.
x3 and heat teh grease!
Thats why I like trigger spin reels...you can easily release the line as you bring the rod up and your other hand is on the reel handle to stop it....it may seem awkward at first but its easy to get used to.
I have spent most my life fishing........the rest I wasted.

I use baitcasters with thumb bars. Simply let off line as you raise the pole.

Just hand over hand and bring the pole back to you even if the reel has to go in the water, when the pole is short enough grab the fish or net it if its big.
