Reason number one….it is so much easier to release those nice fish.

Reason number two….it is so much easier to release your fishing partner. You don’t even have to hit him over the head to quiet him down.

    If I didn’t know better I would say the hook in the flesh picture looks like it is stuck in someone’s neck! Now that would be tramatic!
