Some of the threads of late are starting to sound like a PETA site. If killing fish becomes that much of an issue then it's time for those that it is to take up another sport. Yup not every fish I release survives. That is a reality. I enjoy fishing and when one dies I eat it. from time to time I even weigh in a fish at a Derby an still will. Perfect doesn't exist. Never will. Get over it. Enjoy what you do and be as good a sportsman as you can. Treble hooks,bent barbs, are tiny things compared to net by-catch by the tons are the problem not icidental release kills. The fish are starting to move. the season is right around the corner. Plan what you do an try some different things and respect the fish you release.
