Did you release this fish

Did you release this fish

I saw a comment like that coming. Why does it matter as long as he was within the law? Jeez, let's not start yet another Keeping fish vs. C&R agruement.

 

Great fish, man. Always nice to set a new personal record!

I think you're making an assumption that might not be there. I myself wondered whether the fish was released, but it was simple curiousity. I have no slight for the angler whether he did or not. Maybe the question was asked in the interest of knowing if a mount was being made, if was going to be eaten, or if it was set free to be caught again by the same or another angler.

 

Just because someone asks a question, that doesn't mean there's only one motive for doing so. Don't feed arguements that aren't there.

I too was wondering for sake of curiosity! And also where that pond is! A very nice fish you got there!
