How do you care for the fish you catch.
Do you treat all your fish as if they are carp, i.e. place them on a mat, apply antiseptic cream to any cuts and hook holes. Pat and kiss them goodbye or do you just return them straight to the water without even looking at them.
Some of these big bags in matches, 100’s of pounds must cause damage to the fish when placed into keep nets. I know that most have weight limits per keep net but 60lbs is still a lot of fish in one net.
I’ve never seen anyone treat any other fish in the same way big carp anglers appear to do to the fish they catch.
So why don’t we treat all fish as if they were carp?
