I wasn't trying to stir the pot. Too often someone catches or claims to have caught a fish they are dragging around town showing the world. In my experience the guy that is doing so is doing it for the glory, not for any other reason. I see all too often the instant heros made by a catch. In some cases I am a firm beleiver men have bought fish from draggers or commercial guys just to self promote themselves as heros. I am passionate about striped bass and hate to see a magestic fish killed for the sake of glory. I have more respect for the man that releases that fish than the one who parades it. In this sport credibilty is always in question, but if you have to lie about a fish, you are also self promoting. I have and will kill fish up to 20 lbs for the table, but I promise you will never see me or any of my fishing partners parade around with a big fish killed for the sake of showing off.
