Consider this while forming your opinion.
It's his boat.
It's his rod, reel, line and lure.
He put the boat on the spot, his mate let out the rod and lure to the prescribed length.
The rod sat in the holder until the fish hit.
You reeled it in.
Yours or really his?  |
Well, I can tell you what I do.
1. BYO rod and reel and rigs.
2. Hold your rig at all times.
3. You fight the fish.
It's your fish, but if it was a line-class record, you'd be pretty rude and selfish not to give the skipper some credit too.
