I can now say the slapping technique works! While fishing today in 38 fow I slapped all my throwbacks against the water with all returning with no issues, but that's not what sold me. I saw several shorts floating from other boats. Had one come close enough for me to net that was still fairly lively. I scooped it up and give it a good slap back in the water and straight down it went. SOLD!
