Good man on returning the sea trout. That fish is lean and in poor condition, it looks spent, it has probably just returned from spawning. It would have been starving, would have been easy caught, and would have tasted awful if you had decided to eat it anyway..
I urge others to handle them carefully and return them if caught at this time of year.. Give them half a chance
Well done
