Italicize family, genus, species, and variety or subspecies. Begin family and genus with a capital letter. Kingdom, phylum, class, order, and suborder begin with a capital letter but are not italicized. If a generic plural for an organism exists (see Dorlandâs), it is neither capitalized nor italicized.inary genus-species combinations are always used in the singular. Genus used alone (capitalized and italicized) is usually used in the singular, but it may be used in the plural (not italicized) if it refers to all species within that genus.
Another reason a fish can get injured is from the hook. Ideally, you hook the fish in the mouth -- it's called shallow hooking. Shallow hooking also includes the cheek and jaw.
Hook that fish. Once you feel a tug on the line or feel the line start to be taken, you will want to set your hook. To do this, simply give your fishing rod (and consequently the fishing line) a quick and firm jerk backward and up.
