I didn't expect the folks at boga to be real thrilled about it. But the fact is that if you hang any good sized fish from its mouth, like you see the guys do all the time with the boga, the fish are almost certainly going to die. Teaching that lesson was one of the main reasons I wrote the article.

Thumbs up

I have mine in front of the keyboard as I type. I'll give an opinion later.

He that would make his own liberty secure, must guard even his enemy from oppression; for if he violates this duty, he establishes a precedent that will reach to himself.

MakoMike - Just read the piece as I was having dinner - very very good. Lots of information and "pointers" to those of us somewhat newbies who may think we are practicing proper catch and release. Thank you!
