This is the one with a brightly-coloured plastic tee-handle, and a small stainless hoop at the bottom. I lose kit as often as anyone, at night or on boats, but when I lose one of these it gets replaced absolutely immediately. There's a knack to it - take the snood about a foot above the fish, engage the hoop on the line and slide it firmly down to the hook (even in the fish's throat). Hold the disgorger rock steady and pull the snood up, the hook bend is now in the hoop, now lift the device, shake once and your fish is unhooked by its own weight, from 4oz to 40lb. So: eels, no need to handle them and as long a you keep the snood high they won't tangle. Conger, keep yourself well away from those teeth. Mackerel, speed-fish them out as bait. Keep dogfish away from your arms to prevent abrasions. Catch-witness-release matches: put the whole rig and fish in a bucket of water, your neighbour holds the snood to measure, you release at the waterside, minimal fish handling and mortality. Floating plastic handles would cut down my costs a little, so only 8/10, but can't fathom why everyone doesn't use them.
