Also, having fish scrape on the rocks or boat decks removes slime and even scales that exist as a barrier to infection.

....I honestly believe that if you TRULY feel that way about fishing.......you REALLY shouldn't be fishing. Sorry ...



DZ.....like RIJimmy said, the term COW is used SO freely now-adays and on any sized fish - giving the word no meaning to me, when I see a nice fish, that's exactly what I call it,,, a NICE fish.
Although I do refer to big Tautog as HOGS....
