Actually I just got thinking about how many fish I've brought home. That's where my dilema starts. I've only brought home three fish. And in all honesty I only caught/hooked two of the three. One of the fish was floating by when I was fishing capeside heading east. I continued fishing for about 45minutes and as I was getting ready to leave the fish came floating back within reach of my rod. I pulled it towards me and thought it was still saveable and I tried to revive it but it was dead. I took it home and found the reason appperently someone had released the fish and damaged its gills when dehooking which led to its death. It was during commercial season and the fish was only 32inches which leads me to believe it was a commercial fisherman who hastly yanked his hook from the fish before throwing it back. In all honesty I will be keeping at least one more fish because my cupboards are bare of strippers. I do totally agree as a whole we need to release more fish.
Actually most of my plugs have one of three hooks still attached. 98% haave only a tag for a tail hook since I feel they cause to much damage. When I fish bait for the most part I only use circle hooks. Once again I feel this prize would be better for a less experienced fisher person.
