*I have removed most tail trebles , especially on darters, as they always
seem to end up on the eye on in the face .somewhere.
*Really trying to not hammer schoolies on days where its easy to catch 50 of them.
*I will be skipping catch and release tournaments that require
measuring and photographing fish for entries.
The reality is, that even with an extremely efficient system I had for doing
this, I still had times where the fish was out of the water for just way too
long (especially after a long fight in warm months.)
No need for me to add to the potential release mortality of multiple fish just for a chance to win more gear that I already own.
This sounds crazy, but I almost feel that we are only a few short years away from removing all hooks from our plugs, and counting 'hits" as successful
fishing. If the act of fishing with hooks damages fish, and there arent enough fish to go around, lets be honest we are screwed... unless the stock rebounds.
