i'm not having a go im just more consered about the fishes welfare.Laying em on nettles and twigs aint excatly the most comfotable place to place a fish.You can buy cheap unhooking mats these days.In the past i couldnt buy a perposedly made mat,but one day i was in a charity shop and i seen one of those camping mats what cost me ?2, i cut it in to two so i got good value for money.
I even got some funny looks of my mates when i once used a baby changing mat. What i said to my mates was "it was good enough for my kids so its good enough for my fish" hahahaha lol
