Nooooo, i like fish to eat it..i never let it go...i can let go a chiken, a cow, all animals, but i will keep the fish, is my favorite food. Of course that i ll go to fishing, i will take just how much fish i need to eat, not more. Is a good sense rule. Don t catch to much, only how much you need it.

If I went fishing and caught a cow, I would have to throw it back because I can't eat a whole cow! (whole-y cow!). On the other hand if I went fishing and caught a chicken I would be more than happy!

To me, fishing is part sport and part for food. If I catch the babies fishes I will try to let it go as safest as possible, so it will be able to grow and multiply. If it is a good plate size fish I will take it home for food. but if I have catches enough then all the rest after will be release back. That is what I do.

I have never fished, and the only circumstance in which I would be persuaded to fish is if we were going to eat the fish. Seems pointless to inflict all that discomfort on the fish if you are just going to throw the thing back in the water. I get it that it is man pitting his wits against nature, but I would have to taste the thing to get any pleasure out of the experience... As for shop-bought or caught, I don't know as I have never fished, but if I ever DID fish, I am sure I would be delighted to be eating my own catch. Would I do the same? No if someone I knew caught a salmon I would invite them right around for a BBQ

never understood fishing for sport. If you catch it and it is legal then you should be ready to eat it. Fresh fish is wonderful and so much better than anything you can get at the store. If you are uncomfortable with it though then I hope your friends made you feel comfortable about it. Some people just can't stand the thought and that is why we have stores, so it is ok.
