Step 4: Reel It In<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once you feel a tug on your line, pull up quickly but steadily to secure your catch. Have your net ready to scoop up the fish as it comes out of the water. The staff will then tag your fish and whisk it off to the kitchen. A word of caution though \u2014 once you’ve reeled in your fish, you cannot return it to the tank! So be sure to pick the right fish and the right size beforehand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
