He's not holding on, it's just the rapid fire striking. He's still very young though, and someone else told me he's striking because he's hungry all the time. We feed him once a week, and we're up to hoppers, but I have noticed I barely get the thing in the feeding take and he's already latched on. Is this a case of we need to feed him more, or is he just lashing out?

Thanks for the snake hook idea, I'm going to order one tomorrow.
