Yeah, it's called "My finger"!
I wouldn't trust a clip to work as well as my finger does.

I wasn't in my usual position to net the fish, because they kept saying it was a sheephead. I had to reach further than my reach was able, from where I was standing in the boat, and that's why the hooks ended up in the net first on that fish. Nothing more than a "my bad" moment.
