Taking a sample

An angler uses a scrub pad to collect skin cells from the outer jaw of a tarpon. It's easiest to take a sample with two people, with one person grasping the jaw and the other taking the sample. A freshly captured tarpon can also easily be controlled by one person by grasping the jaw with one hand, leaving the other hand free to obtain the sample.
