I heard Manny Puig wacks barracudas with a knife - I've seen and held the knife - which would definitely spare you the need of a few weights. My guess, based on the knife design, is he gets close (duh) then swings it with some wrist action and lops they heads off. I'd think you could hunt lingcod with a knife - but it would take some serious grabbage - better to have something with a barb.
Anybody ever punched Salmon in open water?
