Bryan: "Rake the gills" is no more than taking a gaff handle or other Instrument and Running it back and forth under the gill plate to open up the blood vessels in the gills. The reason I do it in the water is I am dragging him around (cooling him off) by the tail by two straps(one port, one Stbd.) he stays in the wash and it's easy to reach with the pike.
