I would go with pulling it off with your fingers or a tweezer. It would be
much less stressful than a salt bath. Wearing a cotton glove soaked in cool
water will help you grip the bullhead, and avoid the spines a bit more - of
you are worried about that. A bare , throughly wet hand, would be the best
way to grab it.
