Dennett Priests

Fishing Priests is a popular angling technique that involves using a weighted fly to imitate an insect or baitfish, and "fishing" the water with a series of jerky motions to entice a fish to strike. This technique is often used by experienced anglers and can be very effective in catching trout, salmon, and other freshwater species.

More about Priests

In fishing, a "priest" is a tool that is used to quickly and humanely kill a fish that has been caught. It is typically a heavy, blunt instrument that is shaped like a club, and is designed to deliver a swift and powerful blow to the fish's head, causing instant unconsciousness and death.

Using a priest is an important part of responsible fishing, as it ensures that the fish is killed quickly and humanely, reducing its suffering and allowing it to be safely and cleanly prepared for consumption. It is also a legal requirement in many areas, as some fish species are protected and must be killed in a specific manner to prevent unnecessary harm.

To use a priest, the angler typically places the fish on a flat surface, and then delivers a single, forceful blow to the fish's head using the blunt end of the priest. This is done quickly and efficiently, and the fish is then immediately cleaned and prepared for cooking or freezing.

There are many different types of priests available for fishing, ranging from simple wooden or plastic models to more advanced designs that incorporate features like ergonomic handles or built-in scales. Some anglers also prefer to make their own priests, using materials like lead or steel to create a tool that is perfectly suited to their individual needs and preferences.

Overall, a priest is an essential tool for any angler who wants to ensure that their catch is handled in a humane and responsible manner. By using a priest, anglers can help to protect fish populations, reduce suffering, and ensure that their catch is of the highest possible quality.
