Yet most truly big fish are caught by very experienced and good fishermen, most are killed, and most are "shown-off " in one manner or another (if only to family and friends) with the rationalization they are being kept for food, tournament, or "documentation". The truth is that for many saltwater fishermen, the successful kill of a large fish equates with a successful hunt and produces plenty of self-satisfaction. Nothing necessarily wrong with that.......how many guys would deer hunt with cameras?......but whether the resource can continue to stand it is debatable.
