Releasing Fish!

#1 Post by wilky83 »

Interesting read here http://www.wpcouncil.org/bottomfish/Doc ... ethods.pdf about returning fish which have been caught in deep water not sure how much it would effect fishing here or how many people would be interested in returning fish this way but an interesting read anyway.

Tight lines.

interesting the efforts made to return the fish, i always wondered how quickly and what chance the fish had if you punctured their swim bladder
