I understand the rules for bottom fishing require steel circle hooks, a de-hooking device and a venting tool. I am looking for advice on what and where to get a de-hooking device and venting tool. Also, looking for some information on how to properly vent a snapper? Thanks Guys

| good luck finding anything that matches the definition of a dehooking device as defined by the FWC. "At least one dehooking device is required as well and must be used to remove hooks embedded in Gulf reef fish with minimum damage. The dehooking device must be constructed to allow the hook to be secured and the barb shielded without re-engaging during the removal process. It must be blunt and all edges rounded, and it must be of a size appropriate to secure the range of hook sizes and styles used in the Gulf reef fish fishery." The full text of the new rules can be found here: http://myfwc.com/whatsnew/08/statewide/News_08_X_SnapperRegs.htm

Being as ambiguous as written, ever think it was done on purpose as to cut out Red Snapper...reef fishing. One would think with a statement as ambiguous as it is written (to me anyways) they would explain as to exactly what they want. They sure in the hell advertise boats on their web site you'd think they would post a picture of approved type de-hooker.
