I have never dove a rig, and the average fish you guys seem to shoot is larger than most fish I have taken, but I always try to grab the fish and control it myself. Seems that your advice is opposite of what I (try) to do.

If you did not have structure to wrap the line around and presumably assist in climbing back up, would you still try to just swim/float a large fish up? Or would you technique change in a more open or typical diving environment?

Seems like an excellent thread so far, but I don't understand a lot of what you guys are talking about with mud pads etc.
