Oh man... don't put it back... do whatever you have to do to dispatch that invasive monster!

In short, just make sure you have a knife with you even when you aren't fishing specifically for snakehead.

I forgot my knife before when I went looking for snakehead. Thankfully I was at Savage Mill and there was a large pipe along the banks I could beat it with (those things have thick skulls!). I doubt there are random pipes laying around the Basin, but if you could find a decent rock that might work. Tourists will think you're a barbarian as you repeatedly beat it until it's mostly dead, but it will be a good arm workout. If a knife isn't a standard part of your pack, you can also carry a stringer with you and keep it on the stringer. Those things are tasty! Another option is to take a gallon ziploc and a fillet knife with you and fillet it there. If none of these options are viable, then just put it back.
