I think your percentage is way off dude. That fish took off without a problem. I've heard other people make this speculation before too. Where are you guys getting your data? Are people following their fish after they weigh and release them? So, if your fishing in very strong current, and you really got to fight the current to get the fish in, (which I know puts more stress on a fish then weighing him) you might as well keep em all because they are going to die? I'm sorry, but I just don't buy this theory. In fact, all you fish hippies are starting to tick me off. If you all are so worried about being gentle to fish, stop using hooks. If somebody can produce some hard facts, data that states that 99% of fish that are weighed die, for that matter, show me something that says even 10% of fish that are weighed and released die, I will surely stop weighing my fish. I also will apologize for my brutality. Until then please don't just make up numbers, unless of course you have something to back it up with, then I apologize. Thank you-Bomba
