Like someone else said, I would try to experiment and find a way of fishing similar, but less toxic.
Everyone (including myself) is thinking that you are talking about yo-yoing and if you are there are already many other proven methods that will accomplish the same thing and you are able to do it less toxic.
If you are not talking about yo-yoing than the "toxin" you keep referring to, if it would be harmful to you if you ate the fish you catch with it I would absolutely stop fishing with it. My thought being that even if you were irresponsible, fished with this toxic method and threw the fish back, there is nothing to say that someone else, in a matter of minutes or hours, couldn't come by and catch that fish, keep it, and then ingest this toxin as well.
Lastly, isn't the fun of fishing the challenge? I can tell by your language that you know/think this is wrong. It really isn't a catch at all costs type of thing with you is it? A few less fish, but caught in a more challenging and safe way sounds a lot more rewarding to me.
Great question!!
