We let her go too.
I'm not sure I could have done it if she was over 50 but it felt really good to watch her swim away...

Great job and it is even sweeter that you let her go.

SB, thats great,letting her go. You caught a real nice striper, took pictures of her as your trophy, and now she is free to produce more little stripers. Thats one thing I could never understand, why almost everyone keeps these real big fish. I mean are they as good to eat as the smaller ones? I hope I am not offending anyone!! |

I'm sure the reason that I caught her was that other prople let her go before. We caught a bunch of other fish that morning that would have been much better eating if I wanted to keep fish. The big ones taste like rubber and it was honestly more fun to let her go than to catch it.
I was a little nervous about the expired disposable camera until the pics were printed. This is another reason that you should never fish alone....  |
