What's the best stringer?

I've used many different stringers in the past,what is the best one if you catch a limit of big rockfish including 2 legal lings?

The best 'one' for me is to actually have two of the stainless steel with vinyl covered straight bar handles. I had two with the curved non-covered/bare handles and with full limits of fish on them they were very uncomfortable to carry any distance. In the event you have an epic day where you're going to keep everything then ten 6lb rockfish and two 10lb lings requires two stringers. Trying to carry 80+lbs of fish on one is a no-go.

As Saltydog says, I always carry 2, for a little different reason, I always leave one empty just in case I need it for the big one, I don't want to wrestle with a loaded stringer while trying to get that special fish secured.

And the straight bar handle is a big help.  And if I get one that doesn't have a point on it, I file or grind one, even if you're not doing any piercing the point seems to help sliding it thru the gills.

What Dale said.
In addition to my paddle, I leash them too.

Yep two....one for storage and one for the current one being landed. Then I move it to the other. Its nice to have a free one to secure the fish

a full one

In addition to my paddle, I leash them too.

Absolutely, with the sturgeon in my avatar everything went pretty smoothly as I got the snare on it, comfirmed the measurment, applied wood, and got the stringer snapped shut, THEN it seemed everything went to hell, including loosing the grip on the fish, when I got settled all I saw was the snare floating away in the current and the stringer leash hanging straight down into the water, 

Thanks, all good advice from you guys.I will be calling HOOK1 for  two 18" stringers

I lost mine on a recent trip and didn''t realize it until I launched yesterday, so +1 on the 2 stringers.

I also got a dive game bag while I was it at it for smaller rockfish.  It's not a game clip but convenient since all you have to do is throw them in there.

it's also a good idea to attach a float on the leash.

Another tip: you can fit more fish in the stringer if you pin 'em under the jaw...(sharpen the tip of the game clip so it punctures the skin of the lower jaw easily)

I made a game clip out of some extra stainless tubing and a swagelok tee. First thing I did Sat at Bean was throw it over board like an idiot. Had to throw all my fish inside the hull and it made an f-ing mess. I'll be making 2 now.

Hey Salty dog, take a better look at the regs. "In the event you have an epic day where you're going to keep everything then ten 6lb rockfish and two 10lb lings requires two stringers." Lings are part of your 10 fish limit. Don't get caught with a dozen....

Glynn I thought that Lings were outside the RCG Complex unlike greenies and cabs??

Yep lingcod are seperate from the RCG complex.
