(I see videos on you tube of people stoning their fish on their kayak) In the videos I always see the fish get knocked out, but no matter how hard i hit it would keep wiggling. So I sharpened the knife and cut the mouth and took out the guts, and that fish still wiggled a little.

Too funny... Sounds like fish torture
This reminds me of the first time I took my old girlfriend Susan trout fishing.
She caught a nice 10" brown and a few minutes later I saw her swinging it like a club beating it's head against a rock, it was a bloody mess and still kicking. I said: How would you prefer to die, passing out in bed from slowly asphyxiating or having someone beat in your head in with a hammer?
After that she put her fish in the creel.
Congrats on breaking your curse. Back in the mid 90s I had a yellowtail curse where every yellow I hooked for about a year I lost to structure kelp or tangles. It took the most powerful force on the planet to break my Yellowtail curse. Thank God for El Nino~.
Keep fishing you got bigger and better things coming.
Oh and by the way did you catch any macks..I need some hoop bait.
