Gaff, Clip or Stringer, remove hooks, bleed and then scream if you want to. And have all of your tools at the ready before your fish hits the surface. Gaff should be in easy reach, with point protector easily removable. Clip or stringer should either be already attached to the kayak, or have a plan to quickly do so. Remove the hooks only after your fish is secured and before you work around the head for bleeding (or the next hookset might be in you).
Note: You can get away with a much more girly scream if you end up with the fish to show for it. If you scream and the unsecured fish flops off your lap and back into the water, you lose experience points.
