Paul has hit the nail on the head. You have to look at the lowest common denominator , ie the clowns out there for whom fish welfare rests bottom of the league of concerns. Summer- Pike fight harder , clown with inappropriate unhooking gear takes longer to unhook - dead Pike. That is the way it is. Please consider that we all do not live near the Broads or Scottish lochs. Some of us rely on gravel pits and lakes for our Piking. It does not take long for a couple of clowns fishing in summer to ruin a reasonable water.
